About this opportunity

The Indian Health Service (IHS), a division of the Department of Health and Human Services, is offering the Tribal Management Grant (TMG) Program to enhance the health management infrastructure of federally recognized Tribes and Tribal Organizations. The grant aims to assist these entities in assuming all or part of existing IHS programs, functions, services, and activities through technical assistance, planning, and capacity-building projects. Eligible applicants include Tribal Governments, Tribal Organizations, and 501(c)(3) nonprofits. Applications must include a project narrative, detailed budget, tribal resolution, and other supporting documents. The application deadline is April 28, 2025, and awards are expected to be announced by June 30, 2025, with projects starting on July 1, 2025.

The program will provide approximately $2.46 million in total funding, supporting 14-16 awards ranging from $50,000 to $150,000 per award. Funding is available for feasibility studies, planning projects, evaluation studies, and health management structure projects, with the latter eligible for up to $300,000 over 36 months. The grants will support efforts to improve healthcare delivery, enhance administrative capabilities, and address specific health challenges in Native American communities.
