SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

announcement provides information on

the general program purpose, eligibility

and priority, fields of health care

considered for support, required

affiliation, fund availability and period

of support, and application procedure

for FY 2001.

A. General Program Purpose

The purpose of the INMED program is

to augment the number of Indian health

professional serving Indians by

encouraging Indians to enter the health

professions and removing the multiple

barriers to their entrance into the IHS

and private practice among Indians.

B. Eligibility and Priority

Public and nonprofit private colleges

and universities with medical and other

allied health programs are eligible.

Nursing programs are not eligible under

this announcement since the IHS

currently funds the Nursing

Recruitment grant program. The existing

INMED grant program at the University

of North Dakota has as its target

population Indian tribes primarily

within the States of North Dakota, South

Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming and

Montana. A college or university

applying under this announcement

must propose to conduct its program

among Indian tribes in States not

currently served by the University of

North Dakota INMED program.

C. Program Objectives

Each proposal must address the

following five objectives to be

considered for funding:

1. Provides outreach and recruitment

for health professions to Indian

communities including elementary and

secondary schools and community

colleges located on Indian reservations

which will be served by the program.

2. Incorporates a program advisory

board comprised of representatives from

the tribes and communities which will

be served by the program.

3. Provides summer preparatory

programs for Indian students, who need

enrichment in the subjects of math and

science in order to pursue training in

the health professions.

4. Provides tutoring, counseling and

support to students who are enrolled in

a health career program of study at the

respective college or university.

5. To the maximum extent feasible,

employs qualified Indians into the

program.

D. Fields of Health Care Considered for

Support

The grant program must be developed

to locate and recruit students with

educational potential in a variety of

health care fields. Primary recruitment

efforts must be in the field of medicine

with secondary efforts in other allied

health fields such as pharmacy,

dentistry, medical technology, x-ray

technology, etc. The field of nursing is

excluded since the IHS does fund the

IHS Nursing Recruitment grant program.

E. Required Affiliations

The grant applicant must submit

official documentation indicating a

tribe’s cooperation with and support of

the program within the schools on its

reservation and its willingness to have

a tribal representative serving on the

program advisory board. Documentation

must be in the form prescribed by the

tribes governing body, i.e., letter of

support or tribal resolution.

Documentation must be submitted from

every tribe involved in the grant

program.

F. Fund Availability and Period of

Support

It is anticipated that approximately

$400,000 will be available for one

award. The anticipated start date of the

grant will be September 1, 2001, in

order to begin recruitment for the 2001–

2002 academic year. Projects will be

awarded for a budget term of 12 months,

with a maximum project period of up to

three (3) years. Grant funding levels

include both direct and indirect costs.

Funding of succeeding years will be

based on the FY 2001 level, continuing

need for the program, satisfactory

performance, and the availability of

appropriations in those years.

G. Application Process

An IHS Grant Application Kit,

including the required PHS 5161–1
