What it does

Tribes and tribal organizations can apply under either funding tract: the Network Advancement Tract for networks of independent rural hospitals and clinics, or the Network Development Tract for early-stage rural health networks. The forecast estimates the opportunity will be posted on 2027-01-14, so tribal health programs planning rural network work have roughly two months from posting to prepare an application. Applicants must have demonstrated experience serving, or capacity to serve, rural populations, even if located in an urban area.

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.
