The program, designated "Dementia CAReS," aims to support culturally appropriate dementia care initiatives within these underserved populations. As a forecasted opportunity, full programmatic details have not yet been released. The grant is identified under number HHS-2025-IHS-ALZ-0001, suggesting an Alzheimer's/dementia focus for fiscal year 2025.

What they want

Grant funding is anticipated to support dementia care services, resources, and/or programs specifically tailored for American Indian and Alaska Native communities. The "CAReS" designation likely implies community-based care, awareness, resources, and/or support components related to dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Full scope of work details are pending release of the formal Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO).
Technical requirements

Risks & flags
