The FY 2024 Tribal Behavioral Health (Native Connections) funding opportunity, administered by SAMHSA, is designed to address suicide, trauma, and substance use/misuse among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth, up to age 24, by strengthening community networks and culturally relevant mental health systems. The program provides grants of up to $250,000 annually for a maximum project period of five years, with an application deadline of March 6, 2024, for FY 2024. This opportunity is exclusively open to federally recognized AI/AN tribes, tribal organizations, Urban Indian Organizations, or consortia of tribes or tribal organizations. The program's primary objectives include the prevention and reduction of suicidal behaviors, substance use, and trauma impacts in AI/AN youth populations. Grantees are required to conduct community needs and readiness assessments, develop strategic action plans for suicide prevention, substance misuse, and mental health, and create culturally appropriate postvention protocols. Activities should address multiple prevention levels: universal, selective, and indicated. The program promotes youth advisory boards and requires tribal involvement in all planning and evaluation stages to ensure community alignment with intervention strategies. Applicants must submit a detailed project narrative, budget, and supporting documents. They are also encouraged to include a Disparity Impact Statement (DIS) within 60 days of award to identify and address health disparities among targeted populations. Applications are evaluated based on criteria including the relevance of the proposed project to community needs, feasibility, organizational capacity, and data collection strategies. Bonus points may be awarded for projects targeting underserved populations and implementing DEIA (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility) strategies. Funded projects must adhere to SAMHSA's reporting requirements, including quarterly performance and financial reports, and regular data submissions through SAMHSA's SPARS system.

The Rural Health Network Development Planning Program supports the planning and development of rural integrated health care networks with specific focus on collaboration of entities to establish or improve local capacity and care coordination in underserved communities. Specifically, the program uses the concept of developing networks as a strategy for linking rural health care network participants together to achieve greater collective capacity to overcome local challenges, expand access and improve the quality of care in the rural communities these organizations serve. The program helps network participants work together on three legislative aims: Achieve efficiencies. Expand access to, coordinate, and improve the quality of basic health care services and associated health outcomes. Strengthen the rural health care system as a whole. The intent is that rural health networks will do the following: Expand access to care. Increase the use of health information technology. Explore alternative health care delivery models. Continue to achieve quality health care across the continuum of care.

The purpose of this program is to enhance Tribes, Tribal organizations, and Urban Indian Organizations capacity to implement core Public Health functions, services, and activities, and to further develop and improve their Public Health management capabilities. As part of the IHS mission to raise the physical, mental, social, and spiritual health of American Indians and Alaska Natives to the highest level, this program seeks to build on and strengthen community resilience by supporting wider access to the 10 Essential Public Health Services (EPHS) in Indian Country, a framework designed to offer all people a fair and just opportunity to achieve optimal health and well-being. For more information on the EPHS, please visit https://www.cdc.gov/publichealthgateway/publichealthservices/essentialhealthservices.html. The framework of the EPHS has served as a guide to the public health field since 1994 and describes the public health activities that all communities should undertake, including, 1) monitor health status to identify and solve community health problems, and 2) Diagnose and investigate health problems and health hazards in the community. The EPHS framework was revised in 2020 with an emphasis on equity and reflects current and future priorities for public health practice. The EPHS have been included in the HHS Healthy People initiatives since 2010, when the initiative first included a focus area of Public Health Infrastructure with the goal to ensure that Federal, Tribal, State, and local health agencies have the infrastructure to provide essential public health services effectively.
