What the grant funds

The purpose of this program is to provide American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) organizations with the resources to plan and design a family-driven, community-based, and culturally and linguistically competent system of care. Grant recipients are expected to organize a spectrum of community-based services and supports for AI/AN children who are experiencing or are at risk of mental health challenges. This system of care must cultivate meaningful community partnerships and address cultural and linguistic needs to help children better thrive at home, in school, and in life.
