The Office of Minority Health (OMH) announces the availability of funds for Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 cooperative agreements under the authority of 42 U.S.C.
§ 300u-6 (Section 1707 of the Public Health Service Act).
This notice solicits applications for projects to establish a Center for
Indigenous Innovation and Health Equity (CIIHE), for which OMH will provide the organizational structure and operational framework.
The CIIHE will support efforts including education, service and policy development, and research related to advancing sustainable solutions to address health disparities and advance health equity in the American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) and Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) populations.
The CIIHE award recipients (awardees) will function as a single initiative, coordinated by OMH, through two cooperative agreements to be awarded through this funding opportunity.
