Atlas Analysis
The FY2026 Coordinated Tribal Assistance Solicitation is an open Department of Justice funding opportunity for federally recognized Tribes and eligible Tribal consortia. It combines multiple public-safety, justice, victim-services, treatment-court, youth-justice, and related purpose areas under one coordinated application process. Applicants must match their project to the correct purpose area and follow the current purpose-area-specific eligibility, budget, and documentation rules.
The U.S. Department of Justice is accepting applications for the FY 2026 Coordinated Tribal Assistance Solicitation (CTAS), Opportunity O-BJA-2026-172662. CTAS consolidates multiple DOJ Tribal public-safety and justice funding purpose areas, including Tribal justice systems, adult Tribal treatment courts, child-victim services, youth healing-to-wellness courts, and Tribal youth justice.
For Atlas, the strongest healthcare-related pathways are purpose-area specific. Purpose Area 3 can support mental-health and substance-use treatment, medications for opioid use disorder, recovery, corrections, reentry and aftercare. Purpose Area 5 supports adult Tribal treatment courts with substance-use treatment, mental-health services, screening and assessment. Purpose Area 6 expressly allows certain equipment and technology, including medical equipment for pediatric SANE services and contracted telemedicine or telehealth access. N9+ should therefore be positioned only where a Tribal applicant’s approved purpose-area project legitimately requires remote physical examination, guided exams, vitals or telehealth-enabled clinical encounters.
Eligible lead applicants are federally recognized Tribal governments and qualifying consortia of federally recognized Tribes, with limited Tribal-designee eligibility for specified Purpose Area 6 activities. No match is required. Dr. Miltie is not a direct eligible applicant and should participate only through a legitimate Tribal-led technology, clinical-services or healthcare-partnership role.
From Funding to Implementation · Remote Monitoring Solution
Connect grant funding to a broader remote-care strategy.
Dr. Miltie combines connected monitoring and virtual examination capabilities so funded programs can support longitudinal care while giving clinicians more context when a remote encounter requires assessment beyond a video visit.
