Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2017 IHS MSPI 0001
The Methamphetamine and Suicide Prevention Initiative - Generation Indigenous (Gen-I) Initiative Support grant is an Indian Health Service (IHS) discretionary funding opportunity under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services aimed at strengthening prevention and early intervention efforts for American Indian and Alaska Native youth. The core intent is to advance MSPI goal number 6 by promoting healthy youth development and deeper family engagement, using early intervention strategies that lower risk factors linked to suicidal behavior and substance use, including methamphetamine. This specific round of funding targets three IHS Areas (Navajo, Phoenix, and Tucson) because a previous announcement did not result in all available funds being awarded in those regions, so IHS is working to fill the remaining allocation by supporting additional projects there.
Programmatically, the opportunity is aligned with MSPI Purpose Area number 4, Gen-I Initiative Support, which centers on culturally grounded prevention and youth development work. Funded projects are expected to implement evidence-based and practice-based approaches that build resiliency, encourage positive development, and strengthen self-sufficiency behaviors among Native youth. A major emphasis is also placed on family engagement, recognizing that parents, caregivers, and extended family networks can be a key protective factor and a practical lever for reducing substance use and suicide risk. In addition, the grant supports expanding youth access to prevention activities designed to prevent methamphetamine use and other substance use disorders that can contribute to suicidal behaviors, with the expectation that prevention strategies will be culturally appropriate and responsive to local community needs and strengths.
A notable required component is staffing: projects are expected to hire additional behavioral health personnel who can carry out the proposed activities and support children, adolescents, and families. This can include licensed behavioral health providers as well as paraprofessionals such as peer specialists, mental health technicians, and community health aides, with a clear focus on youth and family services. The intent is not only to run programs, but to build local capacity so communities have more consistent, specialized support for prevention, early intervention, and family-centered behavioral health work.
In terms of basic award and eligibility details, this is a grant (not a contract) with an award ceiling of $400,000 and an anticipated total of six awards. Eligible applicants include federally recognized Native American tribal governments and Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments).
