What it does

Non-federally-recognized tribal governments are listed as eligible applicants, and the opportunity is not set aside for them, so they would compete with other applicant types. The P50 mechanism (a multi-component center that bundles several linked research projects) would fund intervention efficacy studies, longitudinal studies of chronic disease outcomes, biological embedding research, and data infrastructure projects. Dates are estimates and the posting is forecast for fiscal year 2028.

Why it matters for tribal funding

Tribes eligible. Tribes or Native organizations are among those who can apply or are covered, alongside others.

Who it covers: Tribal governments.
