Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA APHIS 10025 VSSP0000 24 0003
The Tribal Nations: National Animal Disease Preparedness and Response Program (NADPRP) Fiscal Year 2024 Cooperative/Interagency Agreements opportunity is a USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Veterinary Services (VS) funding program designed to help Tribal communities strengthen their ability to prevent, prepare for, and respond to animal disease events. Through this announcement, APHIS is making up to $500,000 available in total to support Tribal-focused projects that reduce the risks and impacts of animal disease outbreaks affecting livestock and poultry, while also improving readiness and coordination across Tribal animal agriculture systems.
This is a discretionary funding opportunity offered as a cooperative agreement (rather than a simple pass-through grant), which typically means awardees can expect substantial involvement or technical collaboration from the federal partner during the project period. The program falls under the agriculture activity category and is listed under CFDA number 10.025. The funding opportunity title is "Tribal Nations: National Animal Disease Preparedness and Response Program Fiscal Year 2024 Cooperative/Interagency Agreements," and the opportunity number is USDA APHIS 10025 VSSP0000 24 0003. The posting date (creation date) is October 24, 2023, and the original application closing date is January 19, 2024.
Eligible applicants are specifically centered on Tribal entities and Tribal-serving institutions. The opportunity is open to Native American Indian Tribes, Tribal Organizations, and Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs). The overall intent is to support practical, capacity-building work that strengthens animal health safeguards on Tribal lands and within Tribal food and agriculture systems, recognizing that rapid detection, effective planning, and coordinated response can reduce animal loss, protect livelihoods, and limit wider economic disruption during an outbreak.
Funded projects must align with one or more of five topic areas that APHIS has identified as priority needs for Tribal Nations. First, projects may focus on outreach and education related to animal disease prevention, preparedness, and response. This can include developing culturally relevant materials, hosting workshops, improving awareness among producers and community members, and sharing best practices that help prevent disease introduction and speed up reporting when concerns arise. Second, projects may aim to increase livestock and poultry biosecurity, such as improving on-farm or facility-level practices that reduce exposure to disease, strengthening protocols for animal movement, sanitation, visitor control, and other measures that limit transmission risk. Third, the opportunity supports training and exercises for Tribal Nations animal agriculture sector responders, which can include building responder skills and running drills or tabletop exercises to test how responders would communicate and coordinate during an incident. Fourth, applicants can propose work to develop, enhance, and exercise Tribal animal disease emergency response plans, including updating plans, clarifying roles and responsibilities, strengthening coordination pathways, and validating plans through practice scenarios. Fifth, projects may enhance animal disease traceability for a disease outbreak, focusing on the ability to identify, track, and manage animals and movements in ways that support faster containment and more effective response actions when an outbreak occurs.
In short, this funding is meant to help Tribal Nations and Tribal-serving partners invest in the core building blocks of animal disease readiness: education and communication, biosecurity improvements, responder training, emergency planning, and traceability capabilities. The program is structured to support concrete projects that improve day-to-day prevention while also ensuring Tribal communities are better prepared to act quickly and effectively during an animal health emergency.Apply for USDA APHIS 10025 VSSP0000 24 0003
