U.S. Department of Health and Human Services: Tribal Management Grant Program
The Tribal Management Grant (TMG) Program is a competitive grant program that is capacity building and developmental in nature. It was established to assist tribes and tribal organizations to prepare for assuming all or part of existing Indian Health Services (IHS) programs, functions, services, and activities (PFSAs) and further develop and improve their health management capability. The TMG Program provides competitive grants to tribes and tribal organizations to establish goals and performance measures for current health programs; assess current management capacity to determine if new components are appropriate; analyze programs to determine if tribes’ and tribal organizations’ management is practicable; and develop infrastructure systems to manage or organize PFSAs.
Amount: Approximately $2,412,000 is available for 16-18 grants ranging from $50,000-$100,000.
Eligibility: Tribes and tribal organizations. Tribal organizations are defined as the recognized governing body of any Indian tribe; any legally established organization of Indians which is controlled, sanctioned, or chartered by such governing body or which is democratically elected by the adult members of the Indian community to be served by such organization and which includes the maximum participation of Indians in all phases of its activities.
