RFP: Culturally Based Harm Reduction by and for Native Communities in New Mexico

Vital Strategies is partnering with the New Mexico Tribal Behavioral Health Providers Association and Americans for Indian Opportunity to request proposals from Native nations, Tribal health programs and Native-led organizations in New Mexico.

 

This includes Native communities both on- and off-reservations and Tribal lands. Organizations and Native nations providing services to Native communities in urban areas and border towns are welcome to apply.

 

This is a grant funding opportunity for Native communities that share geography with New Mexico that Vital Strategies launched in partnership with the New Mexico Tribal Behavioral Health Providers Association and Americans for Indian Opportunity.

 

The RFP is focused on reducing harm and deaths by overdose among Native people who use drugs and seeks applicants interested in adopting or deepening the use of harm reduction principles including Indigenous harm reduction principles.

 

Up to 20 grants will be awarded, each in the range of $25,000 to $100,000. Grantees will complete funded projects from August 1, 2025, to July 31, 2026, and participate in learning community meetings.

 

The application is due July 7, 2025.
