Abstract: The Home Visiting Program, 

administered by HRSA in close 

partnership with the Administration for 

Children and Families (ACF), supports 

voluntary, evidence-based home visiting 

services during pregnancy and to 

parents with young children up to 

kindergarten entry. All fifty (50) states, 

the District of Columbia, five U.S. 

territories, and eligible nonprofit 

organizations are eligible for Home 

Visiting Competitive Funding. 

Need and Proposed Use of the 

Information: The purpose of this 

announcement is to solicit applications 

for the fiscal year 2016 (FY16) Home 

Visiting Competitive Grant program. 

The Competitive Grants provide funds 

to eligible entities that are states and 

certain territories that continue to make 

significant progress toward 

implementing a high-quality home 

visiting program as part of a 

comprehensive, high-quality early 

childhood system and are ready and 

able to take effective programs to scale 

to address unmet need. Grantees will 

use the funds to provide ongoing 

support to high-quality evidence-based 

home visiting programs and for the 

incremental expansion of evidencebased home visiting programs funded to 

achieve greater enrollment and retention 

of families eligible for home visiting. 

Additionally, this funding opportunity 

will continue the program’s emphasis 

on rigorous research by grounding the 

proposed work in relevant empirical 

literature and by including requirements 

to evaluate work proposed under this 

grant.

I. Funding Opportunity Description 

Statutory Authority 

The Indian Health Service (IHS) is 

accepting competitive cooperative 

agreement (CA) applications for the 

Injury Prevention Program (IPP) for 

American Indians and Alaska Natives 

(AI/AN). The program is authorized 

under 25 U.S.C. 13, Snyder Act, and 42 

U.S.C., Section 301(a), Public Health 

Service Act, as amended. This program 

is described in the Catalog of Federal 

Domestic Assistance under 93.284. 

Background 

Injuries are the single leading cause of 

death for AI/AN between the ages of 1 

and 44 years. (Trends in Indian Health 

2002–2003 Edition, IHS, Division of 

Program Statistics). Depending on the 

type of injury, AI/AN experience injury 

mortality rates that are 2.5 to 8.7 times 

higher than the U.S. all races rates. This 

funding opportunity was developed by 

the IHS Injury Prevention Program to 

address the disparity in injury rates by 

encouraging tribes to implement injury 

prevention programs and projects based 

on evidence-based, effective strategies. 

Injury prevention evidence-based, 

effective strategies are prevention 

methods that have been scientifically 

proven to prevent injuries. Injury 

prevention programs and projects are 

most effective when based on these 

model practices. Though not repeatedly 

scientifically proven to be effective, the 

use of promising and innovative injury 

prevention strategies is also 

recommended. For more information on 

evidence-based injury prevention 

resources see: http://

www.healthy.ohio.gov/vipp/evidence/

ebresource.aspx. 

Comprehensive injury prevention 

programs use a public health approach 

to employ strategies that address 

education, policy development with 

enforcement, and environmental 

modifications. Programs use various 

combinations of effective strategies to 

ensure they are effective and 

sustainable. A single focus with only 

education is not an effective strategy. 

The IHS IPP priorities are prevention 

of (1) motor vehicle crash related 

injuries; and (2) unintentional fall 

injuries. For AI/AN, motor vehiclerelated injuries and deaths are the 

leading cause of disability, years of 

potential life lost, and medical and 

societal costs. Unintentional elder fallrelated injuries are a leading cause of 

hospitalizations in AI/AN communities. 

Among older adults, falls are the leading 

cause of both fatal and nonfatal injuries 

(http://www.cdc.gov/

HomeandRecreationalSafety/Falls/

adultfalls.html). 

Purpose 

The purpose of this IHS funding 

opportunity is to promote the capability 

of Tribes, Indian organizations and 

urban Indian organizations to build and 

maintain sustainable, effective injury 

prevention programs. Tribal ownership 

and management of injury prevention 

programs and projects: 

(a) increase the understanding of the 

injury problem by Tribes/Indian 

organizations/urban Indian 

organizations;
