Indo American Center

Indo American Center, a Chicago-based nonprofit organization, operates as a sub-recipient on federal grants focused on health equity and benefits access for low-income immigrants and older adults. The organization has received three federal grant sub-awards totaling $459 thousand over the past three years, all routed through prime grantees rather than as direct federal recipients.

Indo American Center's grant footprint centers on two customer agencies within the Department of Health and Human Services: the Administration for Community Living (two sub-awards) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (one sub-award). The organization's recent work includes a March 2026 sub-award from the National Council On The Aging, Inc. focused on dramatically expanding access to federal and state benefits for low-income older adults and persons with disabilities, with emphasis on Medicare affordability programs. A December 2025 sub-award from the Illinois Department of Public Health applies a community health worker model to improve hypertension awareness, screening, and management for low-income South Asian immigrants in Cook County, linking over 100 adults to care through clinic partnerships and addressing food, housing, insurance, and transportation barriers. An earlier January 2024 sub-award from the National Council On The Aging supported benefits enrollment center operations.

Activity has remained steady at one award per calendar year since 2024. Indo American Center does not hold prime federal contracts, GWACs, or agency IDIQs, and the organization does not appear in federal contract prime or vehicle data. As a nonprofit sub-recipient, the organization serves as a delivery partner on HHS-funded health and social services programs rather than as a federal contractor.
