2007 Bilingual/Bicultural Demonstration Grant Program: The purpose of the Bilingual/Bicultural Program is to improve the health status of LEP minority populations (see definition of minority populations in Section VIII.3 of this announcement) by eliminating disparities. Through this FY 2007 announcement, OMH is continuing to build communication bridges and reduce the linguistic, cultural and social barriers LEP minority populations encounter when accessing health services by supporting programs that focus on: improving and expanding the linguistic and cultural competence capacity and ability of health care professionals and paraprofessionals working with LEP minority communities, and improving the accessibility and utilization of health care services among LEP minority populations.

- Additional Information on Eligibility
- To qualify for funding, an applicant must be a: Private nonprofit, community-based, minority-serving organization which addresses health and human services for LEP populations, particularly racial and ethnic minorities who face cultural and linguistic barriers to health services (see definitions of LEP individuals and minority populations in Section VIII.3.) Public (local or tribal government) community-based organization which addresses health and human services; or Tribal entity which addresses health and human services. All applicants must have an established infrastructure with three years or more experience in addressing health and human services. In addition, all applicants must provide services to a targeted community and have an established partnership consisting of at least two discrete organizations that includes: A community-based, minorityserving organization (the applicant); anda health care facility (e.g., community health center, migrant health center, health department, or medical center). The partnership must be documented through a single, signed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the community-based, minority-serving organization (the applicant) and the health care facility (the partner). Each member of the partnership must have a specific, significant role in conducting the proposed project. The MOA must specify in detail the roles and resources that each entity will bring to the project, and the terms of the agreement. The MOA must cover the entire project period. The MOA must be signed by individuals with the authority to obligate the organization (e.g., president, chief executive officer, executive director). Other entities that meet the definition of a private non-profit communitybased, minority-serving organization and the above criteria that are eligible to apply are: Faith-based organizations. Tribal organizations. Local affiliates of national, state-wide, or regional organizations. National, state-wide, and regional organizations, universities and other institutes of higher education may not apply for these grants. As the focus of the program is at the local, grassroots level, OMH is looking for entities that have ties to local communities. National, state-wide, and regional organizations operate on a broader scale and are not as likely to effectively access the targeted population in the specific, local neighborhood and communities. The organization submitting the application will: Serve as the lead agency for the project, responsible for its implementation and management; and Serve as the fiscal agent for the Federal grant awarded.
