Tribal Public Health Capacity Building and Quality Improvement

The Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention funds tribal public health capacity building and quality improvement activities under Assistance Listing 93.098, with the most recent grant award made on September 29, 2013.

Do not pursue this program. The funding line has not issued awards or solicitations for over thirteen years. The most recent award cohort, distributed in September 2013, comprised 12 awards totaling $2.6 million in federal dollars obligated, all with completion dates between 2018 and 2019. The portfolio demonstrates no subsequent grant activity, and the source contains no evidence of open or recently posted grant opportunities.

When active, the program was structured almost entirely as Cooperative Agreements, which made up 11 of the 12 awards (92 percent), with a single Project Grant comprising the remainder. Recent award magnitudes ranged from $12,225 to $291,666, with most awards falling between $140,000 and $291,000. All funding was provided by CDC through a single funding agency.

The program's stated intent is to improve tribal health systems' quality, effectiveness, and efficiency in the delivery of public health services to American Indians and Alaska Natives. The 2013 award cycle funded tribal public health capacity building and quality improvement initiatives under solicitation OT13-1303, but no subsequent rounds of funding appear in the available record.

If your organization has prior relationships with CDC's public health programs or targets American Indian and Alaska Native health systems, monitor CDC's funding announcements and Grants.gov for any reactivation of this opportunity or successor initiatives. Absent evidence of renewed funding or published solicitations, this program does not represent an active pursuit opportunity at this time.
