Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2022 IHS TSGP 0002

The Tribal Self-Governance Planning Cooperative Agreement Program is a discretionary funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), administered by the Indian Health Service (IHS), designed to help Tribes and Tribal organizations prepare for greater control over the administration of IHS-funded health care programs. The central goal is to provide planning resources for (1) Tribes that want to enter the Tribal Self-Governance Program (TSGP) for the first time and (2) Tribes already participating in self-governance that want to take on additional or expanded Programs, Services, Functions, and Activities (PSFAs). In practical terms, the award is meant to fund the groundwork that a Tribe needs to confidently decide whether to move forward with self-governance and to build the internal capacity to manage health programs effectively once that transition occurs.

This opportunity is rooted in Title V of the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA), which requires a Tribe or Tribal organization to complete a planning phase that meets the Tribe's own standards and needs. The planning phase is not a simple concept paper; it is expected to include substantive legal and budgetary research, as well as internal government planning and organizational preparation tied directly to health care program administration. That typically means reviewing legal authorities and responsibilities, understanding how funds flow and what financial systems are required, assessing compliance and oversight obligations, and mapping out how the Tribe will organize staffing, governance, policies, and procedures to run programs that may previously have been operated by IHS. The emphasis is on readiness: using structured planning to reduce risk, strengthen financial and operational controls, and ensure the Tribe has a clear implementation path before assuming new responsibilities.

The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally signals that IHS anticipates an active partnership role during the project period rather than a purely hands-off grant relationship. While the details of collaboration can vary by program, cooperative agreements commonly involve federal program input, technical assistance, or coordination checkpoints to support recipients as they develop their planning products and prepare for next steps in the self-governance process.

Key opportunity details include the funding opportunity number HHS 2022 IHS TSGP 0002 and the CFDA number 93.444, placing it within federal health-related assistance administered through IHS. The award ceiling is $180,000, and the opportunity expected to make about five awards, indicating a relatively competitive program with a limited number of funded planning efforts. The opportunity was created on July 11, 2022, with an original application closing date of August 31, 2022.

Eligibility is aimed squarely at Indian Country governance and service entities. Eligible applicants include federally recognized Native American tribal governments and Native American tribal organizations (including those other than federally recognized tribal governments), with a note that additional eligibility clarifications may appear in the full announcement text. Overall, the program is meant to help Tribal leaders and administrators do the detailed planning needed to enter or expand participation in the Tribal Self-Governance Program, particularly as it relates to the complex legal, financial, and organizational requirements of operating health care programs under self-governance.
