NAPPR budget proposal for Healthcare Guides for NM Native Communities

Good afternoon everyone the following is a budget proposal by Native American Professional Parent Resources (NAPPR), to be the Umbrella organization for the Health Care Guides for Pueblo and Apache and urban Communities. This is out of the RFI that was released by the HIX in early July. NAPPR was the only Native American focused organization that answered the RFI.  This effort is supported by; Pueblo Insurance Agency, Northern Governors Council, 5 Sandoval Governors Inc. Jemez Health Center, Laguna Pueblo Isleta Health Clinic, First Nations, National Indian Youth Council, New Mexico Indian Council on Aging Health Committee, and Native American Independent Living.

For the record, while there are several tribes and tribal organizations involved with this effort, We have taken it upon ourselves to be proactive, there still has not been any Formal Tribal consultation effort on behalf of the HIX on any of the HIX activities.


Hi again folks--here's hoping that the third time is the charm!  The budget was primarily reduced through adjusting it from a 12 month budget to a 10 month budget (assuming HCGuides would be in place for 9 months by the time they are hired, etc.)  Robin told us on Friday that the initial funding for the project only goes through June, 2014 so it made sense to reduce the budget by a couple of months!

Sincerely

 

Jane Z. Larson, Executive Director
