Laguna Rainbow Corp

Laguna Rainbow Corp, a tribally owned subsidiary of the Pueblo of Laguna (a federally recognized Indian tribe headquartered in Laguna, New Mexico), operates as a federal grant recipient delivering aging-services and energy-assistance programs to Native American populations across the Southwest. The vendor holds 100% prime recipient status across its recent federal footprint, with no subcontract or subrecipient activity, and competes exclusively under tribal set-asides through its parent organization's federal recognition.

Laguna Rainbow Corp's capability portfolio centers on three federal grant programs administered by the Department of Health and Human Services. The Administration for Community Living funds the majority of its work through the Older Americans Act (OAA) Title VI programs: supportive services and nutrition for American Indian elders aged 60 and older under Title VI Part A (CFDA 93.047), caregiver support under Title VI Part C, and nutrition services under the OAA Nutrition Services Incentive Program. A representative recent award is a three-year $157,530 formula grant from the Administration on Aging effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2029, funding delivery of supportive and nutrition services to Native American elders in New Mexico. The Administration for Community Living also awarded a $160,000 block grant for the same Title VI Part A program covering the period January 1, 2022 through September 30, 2024. Laguna Rainbow Corp also receives recurring formula and block grants from the Office of Community Services under the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), including LIHEAP Infrastructure Supplement awards and emergency supplements, with awards spanning fiscal years 2022 through 2026. The Indian Health Service provides complementary funding. The vendor was also a recipient under a Medicare Improved Recovery Training (MITR) formula grant from the Center for Integrated Programs. Recent grant awards are structured as formula grants with standard three-year cycles (typically April to March for OAA programs, October to September for LIHEAP), reflecting the tribe's direct entitlement to funding under federal aging and energy-assistance statutes.

Customer concentration is nearly complete within the Department of Health and Human Services. The Administration for Community Living and Administration for Children and Families together account for 98% of awards by count; the Indian Health Service holds the only explicitly stated combined potential value of $207 thousand across 10 awards. The vendor places one parent vehicle, an Indefinite Delivery Contract (HHSI242201400021I) with 8 task orders carrying $29 thousand in combined potential value. Activity has stabilized at two to four awards per year over the past five years, with four awards reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months. Discrepancy between combined potential value ($207 thousand) and combined dollars obligated ($7.8 million) reflects formula-grant realities: the source captures only final-year potential values, while obligated dollars track cumulative funding across multi-year grant cycles. Laguna Rainbow Corp's work is geographically concentrated in New Mexico, serving tribal communities and low-income populations under programs designed to ensure Native Americans receive supportive aging and energy-assistance services comparable to those available under Title III of the Older Americans Act.
