Further, this project will contribute to the development of culturally appropriate research methods with tribal populations. The feasibility study project will be funded for an initial 2-year budget and project period. Funding for conducting the longitudinal study beyond the initial budget cycle depends on the outcomes of the feasibility study, grantee performance, availability of funds, and other criteria established at the time of award. The deadline for receipt of applications is 5 p.m. ET on June 11, 2001.
