OBJECTIVES:
The sponsor provides support to increase the number of American
Indians and Alaska Natives entering the health professions and to
ensure an adequate supply of health professionals to the IHS, Indian
tribes, tribal organizations, and urban Indian organizations involved
in the provision of health care to Indian people.

Each proposal must address the following four objectives to be
considered for funding:  to identify Indians with a potential for
education or training in the health professions (excluding nursing), 
and to encourage and assist them to enroll in such programs; to deliver
the necessary student support systems to help to ensure that students 
who are recruited successfully complete their academic training; to
publicize existing sources of financial aid available to Indian students
interested in enrolling in or enrolled in an accredited master's of
public health program or accredited health professions program; and 
to work in close cooperation with the IHS, tribes, tribal organizations,
and urban Indian organizations in locating and identifying non-academic
period placement opportunities and practicum experiences.

RESTRICTIONS:
Eligible applicants are, in order of priority:  (1) Indian tribes, (2)
Indian tribal organizations, (3) urban Indian organizations and other
Indian health organizations, and (4) public and other nonprofit
private health or educational entities.

Approximately $250,000 will be available for approximately three new
grants.  The average funding level for projects in FY 1998 was
$72,500.  Projects will be awarded for a budget term of twelve months,
with a maximum project period of up to three years.  Grant funding
levels include both direct and indirect costs.

Application forms and guidelines are available.  For further program
information, contact Ms. Patricia Lee-McCoy, Chief, Scholarship
Branch, Twinbrook Metro Plaza, 12300 Twinbrook Parkway, Suite 100,
Rockville, Maryland 20852, 301-443-6197.  Source:  Federal Register
