Nutrition Education Curriculum Development

The contract seeks to design and deliver culturally appropriate nutrition education curricula and materials tailored for Tribal communities participating in the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations. The work must align with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and incorporate USDA Foods in a manner that respects Tribal traditions, languages, and dietary practices. The goal is to create educational resources that are not only scientifically sound but also relevant and accessible to Indigenous populations, promoting healthy eating behaviors through culturally resonant messaging and methods. Subcontractors must possess expertise in developing nutrition education programs for diverse cultural settings, with demonstrated experience working directly with Tribal communities. The contract falls under NAICS code 611630, indicating a focus on other educational support services, and is issued by the Food and Nutrition Service under the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Proposals are due by July 31, 2026, and responses must reflect a deep understanding of both public health nutrition standards and the unique social, historical, and environmental contexts of Tribal nations. Place of performance and point of contact details are not specified, but all materials are expected to be implemented across FDPIR participant communities nationwide.
