The AI3 Action Institute is a federal effort to build dedicated AI capacity within Native communities rather than fund a single applied AI project.
The awardee establishes and operates an AI resource hub for Native communities, providing technology information, facilitating information sharing and technology deployment across tribal and Native-serving organizations, and conducting stakeholder engagement and coalition building across industry, government and academic sectors.
Notably, allowable costs cover short-to-medium-term staff costs including the Institute's director as well as facility setup - a recognition that the binding constraint in this space is institutional infrastructure and staffing, not project ideas.
The financial structure is the detail that most shapes strategy: with a $2,500,000 floor, a $3,500,000 ceiling and $3,500,000 in total expected program funding across a three-year period, this is effectively a single-award competition, so applicants should assume they are competing for the entire program rather than for a slot in a cohort.
Eligibility is restricted to Native-serving entities - federally recognized Indian tribes, incorporated non-federally or state-recognized tribes, consortia of Indian tribes, Native community-based organizations, Urban Indian Organizations, Alaska Native villages and entities, Native Hawaiian serving agencies, Native Pacific Islander serving agencies, and tribal colleges and universities.
That eligibility list is broader than many ACF opportunities, extending to Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander serving agencies as well as tribal entities.
Applicants should expect the strongest proposals to combine an existing convening role in Native technology or education with a realistic plan for standing up durable staff capacity within the grant period, since a hub that dissolves when funding ends would not serve the program's purpose. The deadline is August 27, 2026, and applications are submitted through Grants. gov under opportunity number 362270.

The FY2026 Department of Defense Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program supports basic research in science and engineering at U.S. institutions of higher education, with emphasis on multidisciplinary research where more than one traditional discipline interacts. The Army, Navy, and Air Force basic research offices are seeking applications across 22 topic areas including artificial intelligence and autonomy, information sensing and processing, and systems manipulation. MURI grants typically provide $1.25 million to $1.5 million per year for three years with option to extend two additional years. Approximately $170 million in total funding is available annually across all topics. The program is administered through the Office of Naval Research (ONR), Army Research Office (ARO), and Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR).

Read articlePMHCA (HRSA-26-058) makes $9.79 million available for up to 22 awards of up to $445,000 to build tele-consultation networks that help pediatric primary care providers manage children's behavioral health. The catch buried in the eligibility section: applicants must NOT already hold a PMHCA award — which effectively reserves the new-state lane for the eight unfunded states and territories, plus tribes everywhere. Here's how to read it and what wins.
Read articleThe OpenAI Foundation is putting $100 million behind Breakthroughs to Follow-Through, a Common Health Coalition initiative aiming to at least double hepatitis C cure rates in eight states and localities within two years. Alabama, Illinois, Louisiana and Massachusetts go first, money flows to local collaboratives and nonprofits, and the grants are deliberately not tied to any one AI vendor. Here is what makes an organization fundable under it.
