The NABDI program is a competitive discretionary grant program dependent on available funding. They are not self-determination/638 contracts that are awarded through the Public Law 93-638 process and give a tribe authority over programs operated by the federal government for the tribe’s benefit.
Currently, there is no funding available for the foreseeable future for any planned NABDI offerings.
What You Need
All NABDI proposals must meet eligibility requirements (Tribes, not Individuals or Native owned businesses) and include all documents/mandatory components listed in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). All applicants must complete the Application for Federal Assistance SF-424, version 4.
Please read the NOFO thoroughly to understand the application process and what is required.
To be considered for funding, you must submit all required forms for your application prior to the deadline. Incomplete applications will not be considered for ranking towards funding.
Any information submitted to NABDI becomes part of government records and may be subject to disclosure to third parties.
