- Description
- The Indian Health Service (IHS) is responsible for providing federal health services to American Indians and Alaska Native people (AI/AN). The mission of IHS is to raise the physical, mental, social, and spiritual health of the AI/AN people to the highest level possible. The provision of health services to members of federally recognized tribes grew out of the special Government-to-Government relationship between the federal Government and tribes. This relationship, established in 1787, is based on Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution, and has been given form and substance by numerous treaties, laws, Supreme Court decisions, and Executive Orders. IHS provides a comprehensive health service delivery system to approximately 2.6 million AI/AN people, who are members of 573 federally recognized tribes in 37 states. The mission of the IHS Division of Diabetes Treatment and Prevention (DDTP) is to develop, document, and sustain public health efforts to prevent and control diabetes and related chronic diseases in AI/AN people and communities. The DDTP employs collaborative strategies in the 12 IHS Areas through coordination of a network of Area Diabetes Consultants (ADCs) and just over 300 Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) grant programs. In addition, the DDTP is the primary point of contact for inter-agency, as well as intra-agency communication, on the prevention and treatment of diabetes and related chronic diseases in AI/AN communities. The DDTP plays a central role in overseeing the SDPI grant program, along with the assistance of the IHS Division of Grants Management. The SDPI program was initially established and authorized by Congress through the Balanced Budget Act of 1997. It has since been augmented and reauthorized, extending it through December 31, 2023 Currently funded at $150 million per year, DDTP has only seven (7) permanent professional federal employees to administer all of the SDPI grant programs, including coordinating and implementing future competitive grant application processes. As a result of this shortage in federal staffing, as well as the necessity of continuing work on this and other mission critical national projects, the DDTP is in immediate need of a cadre of professionals with experience in working with AI/AN communities. To effectively coordinate, facilitate, implement, and support the work of DDTP, it is essential to have access to experienced professionals with expertise in biostatistics, diabetes clinical and nutritional care and education, data analysis, program review and evaluation, federal grants management, web site development and design, project management, scientific writing and editing; with in-depth knowledge of all relevant programs, processes, regulations, and historical precedent DDTP has a continuing need for a broad range of experienced experts and professional services staff to conduct essential and ongoing programmatic work related to: � Coordinate and Lead National Projects, Meetings, and Workgroups; � Coordinate, Review, Assist, and Evaluation of AI/AN Clinical and Public Health Programs; � Translate Diabetes Research into Resources for Clinical Practice and Grant Programs/Communities; � Disseminate Information and Resources; and � Project Management. *Non-personal services requirement for professional support. Cost or pricing data may be requested.�
