Tribal Behavioral Health

The purpose of this program is to prevent and reduce suicidal behavior and substance use/misuse, reduce the impact of trauma, and promote mental health among American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth, up to and including age 24. This will be achieved by building a healthy network of systems, services, and partnerships that impact youth. The program expects to be a model for community change that integrates a community’s culture, resources, and readiness to address suicide prevention and substance use/misuse among AI/AN youth. Key aspects of this opportunity include: • Eligibility is limited to federally recognized American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) tribes, tribal organizations, Urban Indian Organizations, or consortia of tribes or tribal organizations. • The program will be open for FY 2024. • Applications are due by March 6, 2024. • Applications submitted by the due date will be reviewed and funding decisions will be made by the end of the FY. • Applicants that do not receive funding are eligible to apply for the following fiscal year.
