Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2024 IHS NU 0001

The American Indians into Nursing grant opportunity (HHS 2024 IHS NU 0001) is a discretionary funding program from the Indian Health Service (IHS) designed to strengthen the nursing workforce serving American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities. The central goal is to recruit, support, and graduate more AI/AN students into key nursing roles, specifically registered nurses (including baccalaureate-prepared RNs), certified nurse midwives, and nurse practitioners, and to expand the skills of nurses and advanced practice nurses through training and continuing education. In practical terms, the program is meant to build a stronger, more sustainable pipeline of clinicians who are prepared to deliver care in AI/AN settings and who are encouraged to continue working in those communities.

Applicants are expected to carry out several core activities. A major requirement is recruitment and training of AI/AN individuals to enter and complete baccalaureate nursing programs and advanced practice pathways, including nurse midwifery and nurse practitioner preparation. Another required component is operating a scholarship program that both supports AI/AN students financially and incentivizes recipients (including registered nurses and advanced practice nurses) to provide or continue providing health services to AI/AN communities. The scholarship support can be used broadly for education-related costs, including tuition, books, fees, room and board, living stipends, and other expenses tied to baccalaureate-level nursing or advanced practice nursing programs. In addition to direct student support, the opportunity also emphasizes developing and maintaining nursing education programs and implementing ongoing recruitment strategies to prepare nurses and advanced practice nurses specifically aligned with serving AI/AN people.

Eligibility is limited to certain types of accredited education providers and training programs. Only accredited public or private schools of nursing may apply, along with accredited tribally controlled community colleges and accredited tribally controlled post-secondary vocational institutions that offer nursing education. In addition, nurse midwife and nurse practitioner programs provided by any public or private institution are eligible, as long as they meet the program standards. A key condition across eligible applicants is full accreditation without restrictions at the time of application. Schools of nursing must be accredited by a national nursing education accrediting body or have state approval recognized by the U.S. Department of Education for nursing education purposes. Programs that award a nurse midwifery degree must verify accreditation by the American College of Nurse Midwives, and tribally controlled community college nursing programs and post-secondary vocational institutions must likewise hold appropriate recognized nursing accreditation without restrictions.

The award is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates a more involved federal role in program oversight and collaboration compared to a standard grant. The program falls under CFDA number 93.970 and is categorized under Education and Health. The funding ceiling is $400,000 per award, with an expected total of five awards. The opportunity was posted on March 5, 2024, and the original application closing date was May 14, 2024. Overall, this funding is aimed at expanding the number of AI/AN nurses and advanced practice nurses, reducing workforce shortages in AI/AN health systems, and supporting long-term improvements in access to culturally informed, community-based care.
