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: https://
PO 00000
Frm 00040
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
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
(https://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;
