Funding Opportunities
Idaho Heart Disease & Stroke Prevention (HDSP) Program Health System Funding Opportunity
Application Deadline: Friday, September 11, 2026, by 5:00 p.m. MDT
The Idaho Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention (HDSP) program is housed within the Bureau of Prevention and Community Health (BPCH), Division of Public Health, Idaho Department of Health and Welfare (DHW), and has received funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of Health and Human Services for management and prevention of cardiovascular disease.
This funding announcement addresses priorities of the federal award The National Cardiovascular Health Program (5NU58DP007468-04-00, Assistance Listing Number: 93.426). The priorities of this funding opportunity are to:
- Support evidence‑based strategies focused on improving the use of health information technology, expanding team‑based care, and building community‑clinical linkages for patients with hypertension and high cholesterol. Eligible Idaho clinics or systems can apply for one or more strategies and will implement structured activities such as policy development, referral workflows, multidisciplinary care coordination, and required reporting.
The Idaho HDSP Program plans to fund up to three (3) health clinics or systems, between $20,000 - $80,000 for the first year, with an estimated start date of October 2026, and ending June 29, 2027, with amendments possible based on performance and approval, to continue this work an additional subgrant year through June 2028. Future funding is dependent on available funds, demonstrated progress during the initial term, an approved Year 2 (June 2027 – June 2028) workplan and budget, and federal approval. The final funding amount will be negotiated between the Department and the health clinic or system.
