Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 IHS SDPI 0001
The Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) grant opportunity is a discretionary funding program run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Indian Health Service (IHS). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to be actively involved through collaboration, guidance, and oversight during the project period rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The overall focus is improving diabetes outcomes in American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities by supporting practical, on-the-ground treatment and prevention services.
The core purpose of the program is to fund diabetes-related activities and services that either prevent diabetes in people who are at risk, improve the quality of care for people who already have diabetes, or reduce diabetes-related complications. In other words, the program is designed to support the full continuum of diabetes work in AI/AN communities, from prevention and risk reduction to clinical management and complication prevention. Funded projects can include direct services, community-based interventions, or other structured activities that address local diabetes needs.
A central requirement of the award is that each funded organization must implement one SDPI Diabetes Best Practice. A "Best Practice" in this context refers to a defined, evidence-informed intervention approach recognized within the SDPI framework. In addition to implementing the Best Practice itself, awardees must report data tied to that Best Practice's Required Key Measure (RKM). The RKM requirement highlights that the program is not only service-driven but also performance- and outcomes-oriented. The intent is to ensure consistent tracking of measurable indicators so IHS can assess progress, compare results across sites, and strengthen what works over time.
Beyond the required Best Practice, awardees are allowed to implement additional activities or services based on their community's diabetes-related needs. This provides flexibility for local tailoring, so programs can respond to what is most urgent or most effective in a given community, whether that means expanding education, improving screening and referral workflows, strengthening case management, supporting nutrition and physical activity initiatives, addressing medication adherence, or reducing barriers to care. Awardees may also develop an evaluation plan to document implementation quality and outcomes, supporting continuous improvement and clearer evidence of impact.
Eligible applicants include federally recognized Native American tribal governments, Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments, and other applicants as permitted by the additional eligibility details in the full notice. The funding opportunity number is HHS 2023 IHS SDPI 0001, and the CFDA number associated with the program is 93.237. The opportunity was posted on July 26, 2022, with an original closing date of October 7, 2022. The award ceiling is listed as $7,500,000, and the program anticipated making approximately 325 awards, indicating a broad national footprint intended to reach many tribal communities and partner organizations working on diabetes prevention and care.
Overall, the SDPI grant opportunity is structured to support widespread, community-relevant diabetes services in AI/AN communities while also requiring disciplined implementation of at least one recognized Best Practice and standardized reporting on a key performance measure. The combination of required evidence-informed practice, local flexibility, and data reporting is aimed at driving real improvements in diabetes prevention, treatment quality, and complication reduction across participating programs.Apply for HHS 2023 IHS SDPI 0001
