- Description
- The Indian Health Service (IHS), an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, is responsible for providing federal health services to American Indians and Alaska Natives. 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 Indian 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. The IHS is the principal federal health care provider and health advocate for Indian people and its goal is to raise their health status to the highest possible level. The IHS provides a comprehensive health service delivery system for American Indians and Alaska Natives who are members of 566 federally recognized Tribes across the U.S. The Division of Diabetes Treatment and Prevention (DDTP) is to develop, document, and sustain a public health effort to prevent and control diabetes and related chronic diseases in America Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) people and communities. �The DDTP employs collaborative strategies in the 12 IHS Areas through coordination of a network of Area Diabetes Consultants, and approximately 301 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. Since FY 2004, SDPI grantees in most IHS Areas have decided to allow some of their Area SDPI grant funds to go to ""data grants."" �These ""data grants"" have primarily gone to IHS Area Offices, but two have gone to regional Tribal organizations and one went to an Urban organization. These ""data grants"" have gone through the usual SDPI grant application process, even though they have been providing TA to Area grantees and not actual SDPI diabetes prevention/treatment services. �
