Funding: $400,000 total, with approximately $100,000-$200,000 per award and 2-4 subawards anticipated.

Eligible pathways: rural healthcare facilities and providers, schools and Idaho colleges or universities, nonprofit and community organizations, faith-based organizations, government and Tribal organizations, healthcare associations and FQHCs, subject to the controlling solicitation and rural-geography rules.

Atlas Opportunity Score: 95/100. This is a strong cross-sector rural behavioral-health prevention opportunity with meaningful school, healthcare, FQHC, community and public-agency applicability.

N9+ Direct Vendor Fit: 5/100. The verified program purpose is evidence-based behavioral-health prevention, early identification, protective-factor strengthening and community well-being. The controlling public materials do not establish a defensible direct N9+ device or remote-physical-exam procurement pathway. Do not position N9+ as a funded component unless an applicant-specific model and the controlling solicitation expressly support it.
