Trauma Informed Care training for IHS staff and contracted personnel

The Indian Health Service is forecasting a one-year contract to develop new mandatory trauma-informed care training content for IHS staff and contracted personnel, replacing the existing two-hour program currently housed in the HHS Learning Management System. The revised training will be a one-hour module designed for a broader audience beyond just behavioral health providers, requiring the vendor to have deep expertise in cultural competency and the agency’s specific trauma-informed care policies. Development of the acquisition plan is currently pending evaluation data that will guide the scope and structure of the training content. The opportunity is classified under NAICS code 611430, with point of contact information provided for Tamara James as the program lead and a contracting officer position still to be filled. The forecast was posted on May 25, 2026, and no set-aside type has been designated at this time.
