About this opportunity
The Department of Health and Human Services Indian Health Service is soliciting applications for the Zero Suicide Initiative, a competitive grant program supporting suicide prevention in Tribal health systems, with a Notice of Funding Opportunity to be posted on Grants.gov at an unspecified future date.
Eligible applicants are federally recognized Indian tribes, Tribal organizations, nonprofit inter-tribal organizations, nonprofit urban Indian organizations contracting with IHS under Title V of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act, and public or private nonprofit health and education entities and State and local government health agencies. The program targets American Indian and Alaska Native populations and requires that recipients involve AI/AN communities in designing and implementing health care improvements.
The Zero Suicide framework emphasizes a comprehensive, culturally informed systems-based approach centered on building Tribal health system leadership and workforce capacity, implementing systematic suicide risk identification, ensuring timely engagement and evidence-based treatment, maintaining continuity of care, and executing quality improvement activities to reduce suicide risk among AI/AN individuals. The initiative aligns with the National Strategy for Suicide Prevention and the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention.
No award ceiling, award floor, or expected number of awards is published. Cost share or matching requirements are not specified in the forecast. The period of performance and place of performance are not disclosed in the forecast materials.
Renewals require submission of a new competitive application and Notice of Funding Opportunity at project period end. Applicants must submit through Grants.gov; direct email submission is not permitted. Recipients expending $1 million or more in federal awards in a fiscal year are required to obtain an annual independent audit under 2 CFR 200, Subpart F; smaller recipients remain subject to federal inspection and audit on request. Grant records must be retained for three years after submission of the final expenditure report, or longer if litigation, claims, negotiation, or audit activity is ongoing.
CFDA 93.00F.
