About this program
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is funding tribal practices and cultural traditions that build resiliency and connections to community, family, and culture to improve physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health and wellbeing among American Indians and Alaska Natives (CFDA 93.762), with the most recent grant awards made in April 2018.
The program supports implementation of specific tribal wellness practices identified by tribal health leaders, including family and community activities connecting cultural teachings to health and wellness, seasonal cultural and traditional practices, social and cultural activities promoting community wellness, intergenerational learning opportunities, cultural teachings about traditional healthy foods, and traditional and contemporary physical activities. Recent awards funded projects such as the Healing Ways Project (Sacramento Native American Health Center) delivering collaborative chronic disease prevention services through field trips, harvesting activities, elder-youth workshops, traditional medicines classes, and community events; the Minobimaadziwin Community Wellness Project (American Indian Health and Family Services, Detroit) implementing seasonal wellness retreats and intergenerational wellness calendars to address obesity and diabetes; the Hualapai Green Arrow Project addressing obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and mental health through workshops on traditional tool-making, food gathering, traditional healing practices, and language workshops; and cultural curriculum development projects documenting traditional knowledge and creating video series on traditional food preparation.
All 86 awards in the portfolio are Cooperative Agreements. The CDC is the sole funding agency across all awards, having obligated $131.6 million in combined federal dollars. Award magnitudes from the recent cohort (April 2018) range from approximately $614 thousand to $1.2 million, with a concentration of awards in the $900 thousand to $1.1 million range. Earlier rounds (September 2014) included larger infrastructure-focused awards exceeding $3 million to tribal epidemiology centers and regional consortiums.
Eligible applicants are federally recognized American Indian Tribes and Alaska Native Villages and Corporations, tribal organizations, urban Indian organizations, tribal colleges or universities, and tribal epidemiology centers as defined in 25 U.S.C. Section 1603 and related statutes. Projects operate with 12-month budget periods and up to five-year periods of performance.
