Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2021 ACF ANA NN 1918
The Social and Economic Development Strategies - Growing Organizations (SEDS-GO) grant is a discretionary federal funding opportunity run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), specifically the Administration for Native Americans (ANA). It is designed to help Tribes and Native-serving organizations strengthen their internal organizational capacity so they can compete for, manage, and sustain federal funding more effectively over time. Rather than primarily paying for direct services alone, the program focuses on helping eligible applicants build the “back office” and leadership systems that make long-term community work possible and stable.
The central goal of SEDS-GO is capacity building for organizations that are still growing or that need targeted improvements to operate at a stronger federal-grant-ready level. ANA’s intent is to provide financial assistance that supports practical internal development so organizations can better serve the communities where they provide services. In other words, the grant is meant to help an organization become more resilient and better equipped to plan, manage, deliver, and track programs in a way that meets federal standards and supports long-term sustainability.
Applicants can shape their projects around a set of common capacity challenges that ANA highlights as priorities. These focus areas include staff development (such as training and professional growth systems), governance improvements (clarifying roles, strengthening boards or leadership structures, and improving decision-making practices), and effective grants management (building the systems and skills needed to apply for, administer, and report on grants). The opportunity also supports strategic or community planning efforts, upgrades to financial management systems (such as accounting processes, internal controls, and budgeting practices), and improved use of technology. Additional emphasis is placed on an organization’s ability to track and manage data (which often ties directly to performance measurement and reporting requirements), as well as building and strengthening partnerships that can increase reach, coordination, and effectiveness.
In terms of structure and funding, SEDS-GO allows for a project period of up to three years, offering flexibility for organizations that need time to implement meaningful internal improvements. The award ceiling is $200,000 per budget period, meaning a funded project can receive up to that amount in each budget period within the approved project timeline. ANA anticipated making about 9 awards under this particular announcement. The program is listed under the Income Security and Social Services funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.612.
Eligibility is geared toward Native communities and organizations, including federally recognized Native American tribal governments and Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments). The announcement also notes “Others” may be eligible as described in the full eligibility language in the funding notice, which typically refers to certain Native nonprofits or other entities that meet ANA’s statutory and program eligibility requirements.
