Description:
This is only a forecast. The synopsis and application package are not yet posted, and we have not yet finalized the application due date. This opportunity will be updated when it is published in Grants.gov.
We want to achieve tangible, meaningful, and measurable action in every Tribal and Urban Indian community to positively impact the lives of people at risk of and living with dementia.
This funding will support your efforts to design, implement, and promote activities nationally that help work towards that outcome. The four core strategies for this NOFO are to:
· Provide “Mini-Grant” funding, training, technical assistance, and evaluation support to Tribal and Urban Indian clinical settings. Mini-Grant funding will support priority areas and address direct care, service, and training needs. Priority areas will be refined and finalized with us after the award. [AP(1]
· Develop and support a “Call to Action” that identifies and connects a multi-disciplinary network of dementia champions and more broadly engages Tribal and Urban Indian communities. The Call to Action will help staff and communities learn from each other and work together to develop and achieve collective impact and improve outcomes.
· Document and spread locally developed Tribal and Urban Indian Health emerging practices and success stories. The purpose is to increase awareness and promote innovation and change in clinical and community systems.
Develop and implement an evaluation and data management plan, including the joint creation and testing of performance measures. The evaluation approach will track project [AP(1]Priority areas should be laid out in the application and guidance should be provided in the NOFO.
