organizations that have novice level
experience with federal grants. The
purpose of the SEDS–GO FOA is to
provide financial assistance to tribes
and Native American organizations with
limited capacity, staff, and resources to
compete for federal funding. The
funding is to be used to enhance their
internal capacity and infrastructure to
better serve their members or their
communities. Awards made under the
FOA will have either a 12-, 24-, or 36month project period with an award
ceiling of $200,000, per budget period.
Although it is not required to have a 3year project, the funding opportunity
will allow the flexibility for 1 year of
planning and 2 years of project
implementation. ANA is interested in
funding eligible entities that have
limited experience in managing federal
grants due to their limited ability to
prepare grant applications, administer
projects, evaluate results, or have
limited financial management capacity.
Bonus points will be provided during
the objective review process for
applicants that have never received an
ANA grant award. The SEDS–GO FOA
will request potential applicants to
submit a Letter of Intent within 30 days
of its publication, but this is not
mandatory. The application submission
deadline will be 60 days from the date
the SEDS–GO FOA is published.
Applicants will identify up to two
organizational challenges that will be
addressed within the following program
areas of interest: Staff Development;
Governance; Effective Grants
Management; Strategic/Community
Planning; Financial Management
Systems; Use of Technology; Ability to
Track and Manage Data; and
Partnerships. The ANA Project
Framework will not be applicable to
SEDS–GO FOA. Applicants will identify
up to two targeted challenges within the
Program Areas of Interest; a Project
Goal; Objectives that are Specific,
Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and
Time-Bound (SMART); and an Indicator
of change.
