Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 IHS TAP 0001
The Community Health Aide Program: Tribal Assessment and Planning (TAP) grant is a discretionary funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Indian Health Service (IHS), intended to help Tribes and Tribal Organizations decide whether and how they could bring the Community Health Aide Program (CHAP) into their local health systems. Rather than paying to launch or operate a full CHAP program right away, this funding is aimed at the early, foundational work: taking a hard look at community needs and current health system capacity, identifying what would need to change to successfully integrate CHAP, and laying out a practical roadmap for moving forward. The opportunity is structured to allow regional and community-specific flexibility, recognizing that CHAP implementation will look different across Tribal communities and that a one-size-fits-all approach does not match the realities of geography, workforce availability, culture, and existing clinical operations.
The grant centers on three core pieces of work. First, recipients are expected to assess whether their Tribe or Tribal Organization can realistically integrate CHAP into the Tribal health system, including how CHAP would fit into the existing health care workforce. This includes understanding the current staffing model, the roles already in place (clinical and community-based), supervision capacity, referral pathways, and how CHAP providers could complement and strengthen services rather than duplicating or conflicting with existing roles. Second, applicants must identify systemic barriers that would prevent full integration of CHAP into the current health care system. The announcement highlights several barrier categories that should be examined in detail: clinical infrastructure (such as clinic workflows, supervision, medical records, telehealth capacity, protocols, and quality systems), workforce barriers (recruitment, retention, workload, and job design), certification requirements for providers, training pathways and training access, and the meaningful inclusion of culture in CHAP services so that care is not only clinically sound but also culturally grounded and community-aligned. Third, the program requires planning for partnerships across the applicant's geographic region to address the barriers identified in the assessment. This partnership planning is expected to be concrete and implementation-oriented, covering issues like reimbursement and financing strategies, training and education partners, clinical infrastructure development, expected implementation costs, and the steps needed to integrate CHAP into the broader system of care.
Key administrative details: the funding opportunity is titled "Community Health Aide Program: Tribal Assessment and Planning" with Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2023-IHS-TAP-0001, listed under CFDA 93.382. Eligible applicants are Federally recognized Native American tribal governments and Native American tribal organizations (other than Federally recognized tribal governments). The agency anticipated making about five awards, with an award ceiling of $500,000 per award. The opportunity was created on May 8, 2023, and the original application closing date was August 7, 2023. Overall, the TAP grant is best understood as targeted planning support to help Tribal communities build a clear feasibility determination and a realistic, partnership-based plan for CHAP integration, with attention to operational readiness, workforce and training systems, certification requirements, sustainable financing, and culturally responsive care design.Apply for HHS 2023 IHS TAP 0001
