Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2018 IHS EPI 0001
The funding opportunity titled "Epidemiology Program for American Indian/Alaska Native Tribes and Urban Indian Communities, Cancer Activities" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2018 IHS EPI 0001) is a discretionary grant program offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Indian Health Service (IHS). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which usually means that award recipients would not only receive financial support but would also work in closer coordination with the federal agency than they might under a standard grant. The program sits in the public health and health services space, with its activity category listed as Health, and it is associated with CFDA number 93.231.
At a high level, the opportunity is aimed at supporting epidemiology-related cancer activities for American Indian and Alaska Native tribes as well as Urban Indian communities. While the short listing does not spell out the specific activities, the title indicates that funded work would be centered on cancer epidemiology functions such as data collection and analysis, surveillance support, and other population health activities that strengthen understanding of cancer burden and trends in AI/AN and Urban Indian populations. The listing notes that additional details are provided in the full Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) published in the Federal Register, which is where applicants would normally find the required project components, specific allowable and unallowable costs, reporting expectations, collaboration requirements, and the criteria used to score applications.
The estimated funding parameters are relatively defined. The award ceiling is $220,000, meaning individual awards were not expected to exceed that amount, and the agency anticipated making two awards under this announcement. The posting was created on August 15, 2018, with an original application closing date of September 12, 2018, indicating a fairly short application window of about four weeks. Because it is a cooperative agreement, applicants would typically need to be prepared for ongoing communication with IHS project officers and for meeting programmatic milestones, performance measures, and periodic reporting requirements aligned with federal public health grant management practices.
Eligibility is described broadly as "Others," with a note directing readers to consult the NOFO section titled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification. In practice, announcements with this framing often specify eligibility for certain types of tribal entities, tribal organizations, Urban Indian organizations, consortia, and other community-based or public entities that are positioned to carry out epidemiology and public health functions in AI/AN and Urban Indian settings. The key takeaway is that eligibility is not fully defined in the abbreviated record and would depend on the exact definitions and documentation requirements described in the Federal Register notice.
Overall, this opportunity represents a targeted IHS investment in strengthening cancer-related epidemiology capacity and activities among AI/AN tribes and Urban Indian communities, with modest-sized awards, a small number of expected recipients, and the collaborative federal involvement that is typical of cooperative agreements. For anyone evaluating fit or preparing an application, the essential next step would be reviewing the full NOFO in the Federal Register to understand the program goals, required work plan elements, expected deliverables, and the specific eligibility and application requirements.Apply for HHS 2018 IHS EPI 0001
