Center for Indigenous Innovation and Health

https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/362800?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery HHS OMH is soliciting applications to advance sustainable, culturally responsive solutions to address chronic disease burden and health care access gaps experienced by American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) and Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) populations. Funded projects should focus on the prevention and improvement of chronic disease outcomes, including obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and related conditions, within one identified Indigenous population of focus – either AI/AN or NHPI and a defined geographic area to be served. Projects funded under the initiative are expected to demonstrate that innovative, culturally grounded, community-driven, and evidence-based approaches developed in partnership with Indigenous communities and rooted in Indigenous knowledge systems are effective and sustainable in improving health outcomes. HHS OMH also expects projects to strengthen partnerships, build community-level data and evaluation capacity, improve access to quality health services, integrate culturally appropriate practices and promote measurable improvements in chronic disease prevention and management among the selected AI/AN or NHPI populations of focus. Closing Date: July 15, 2026, 6 p.m. ET A technical assistance webinar recording will be available on June 24, 2026, to help you with your application.
