in the study of heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders.
The all-expense-paid program brings participants to the University for
3-week sessions during two consecutive summers, with a short mid-year
visit and an Annual Workshop/Conference for all PRIDE Mentees and Mentors
across 6 programs and the NHLBI. The PRIDE program provides mentor-mentee
partnerships with matching based on common research interests. The mentors
are experienced in research and grant writing and will offer long-term
collaborations. The didactic curriculum's involve faculty and mentors
from multiple disciplines with various levels of hands-on training. Special
emphasis is placed on developing grantsmanship skills, with mentors assisting
mentees one-on-one to develop specific research projects and improve long-term
fundability. NHLBI scientific program staff will provide a grants workshop
to assist mentees with project focus and to identify viable funding sources
to promote a sustainable independent research program for career advancement.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Substance Abuse

Abuse Prevention (CSAP) is accepting applications for the Prevention Fellowship
Program Summer Internship for graduate students.
The Summer Internship, a component of CSAPs Prevention Fellowship

program, launched by CSAP in 1997, as one of SAMHSA's Infrastructure Grant
programs. This program was also included in the tribal community as the
SPFTIG. These programs support an array of activities to help grantees
build a solid foundation for delivering and sustaining effective substance
abuse and mental health services. SPFTIG grantees receive funding

including childhood and underage drinking;
- reduce substance abuse-related problems in communities; and
- build prevention capacity and infrastructure at the state and community
levels.
Summer interns are accepted on a location-by-location basis,
depending on the sites of the SPT-TIG locations and Tribal Organizations,

Title: Art: Issue 6 'The Resurgence of Indigenous Women's Knowledge
and Resistance in Relation to Land and Territoriality: Transnational and
Interdisciplinary Perspectives'
Deadline for call: June 15th, 2011
Website: http://www.yorku.ca/intent/submissions.html.
This guest-edited issue of Intensions examines the transformative effects
of dissent, resistance, mobilization and social change after five centuries
of Indigenous political engagement and corporeal interaction with the
Empire. We welcome submissions that explore how Indigenous women engage
with territory, relate to land and its gifts as well as submissions that
interrogate the manifestations of colonial structures, policies, and controls
over territory in all settings inclusive of the urban environment.
Scholar Sandy Grande reflected critically on "inherent tensions between
the feminist and indigenous political projects" that arise from the
Conventional focus of 'whitestream' feminism on individual rights and
gender equality in the marketplace (Grande 2004, 150-151). As Grande argues,
the individualism of this perspective lacks crucial insight into the multigenerational
effects of territorial and cultural dispossession on indigenous women
and their families and communities. If, as Dian Million determined Euro-Canadian
and American feminism "successfully reordered the political significance
of familial 'privacy'" . . . and further determined that "private"
acts were Political these campaigns did not "immediately empower
Native women." However, the conception of private as political has
been effectively reframed by Indigenous women who use "strategies
and languages that located them within the heart of their own experiences"
(Million, AIQ June 2008, 269).
This issue of Intensions anticipates innovative and nuanced insights regarding
past and present resistance, activism and revitalization of Indigenous
women's relations to territory. The editors seek a diverse range of interdisciplinary
and transnational submissions including fiction, poetry, storytelling,
theatre, historical and cultural critical analysis, oral interviews, and
visual art-including digital projects (audio, video, animation, web-based),
body work, spoken word, performance, and site-specific installation.
Guest co-editors: Wanda Nanibush, Leanne Simpson, Carol Williams
Please send copies of submissions to all three editors: Leanne Simpson
(leannesimpson@sympatico.ca),
Carol Williams (carolwilliams@trentu.ca),
And Wanda Nanibush (wnanibush@gmail.com).
Style and submission guidelines can be accessed and downloaded at http://www.yorku.ca/intent/submissions.html.

Title: Grants to Tribes, Tribal Organizations and Migrant Programs
for Community-Based Child Abuse Prevention Programs
Deadline: July 5, 2011
Website: http://www.acf.hhs.gov/grants/open/foa/view/HHS-2011-ACF-ACYF-CA-0147
The primary purpose of this funding opportunity announcement is to provide
financial support to selected Tribes, Tribal Organizations, and Migrant
Programs for child abuse prevention programs and activities that are consistent
with the goals outlined by Title II of Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment
Act. This legislation specifies that one percent of the available funding
from Title II will be reserved to fund Tribes, Tribal Organizations and
Migrant Programs. The goal of the programs and activities supported by
these funds is to prevent the occurrence or recurrence of abuse or neglect
within the Tribal and Migrant populations. The funds must support more
effective and comprehensive child abuse prevention activities and family
support services, including an emphasis on strengthening family life and
reaching out to include fathers, that will enhance the lives and ensure
the safety and well-being of Migrant and Native American children and
their families. Some examples of programs that may be funded include,
but are not limited to, voluntary home visiting, respite care, parenting
education, mutual support, family resource centers, marriage education,
and other family support services. Applicants are strongly encouraged
to implement evidence-based and evidence-informed programs and practices.
The funds must also be used to support an evaluation of the programs and
services funded by the grant. Finally, programs funded should develop
stronger linkages with the Community-based Child Abuse Prevention Program
(CBCAP) State Lead Agency funded under Title II of CAPTA.
It is anticipated that three grants (one each to a Tribe, a Tribal Organization,
and a Migrant Program) will be funded under this announcement for $138,963
per grantee for FY 2011. This amount reflects the maximum Federal share
of this project not exceeding one-third (1/3) of one percent (1%) of the
Federal appropriation for Title II for each 12-month budget period.

Title: Pre-Doctoral Diversity Fellowship Program
Location: Ithaca College (Cayuga Nation)
The School of Humanities and Sciences at Ithaca College announces a Pre-Doctoral
Diversity Fellowship for 2011-12. The fellowship supports promising scholars
who are committed to diversity in the academy in order to better prepare
them for tenure track appointments within liberal arts or comprehensive
colleges/universities.
As part of Ithaca Colleges commitment to diversity we are launching
the second year of our Pre-Doctoral Diversity Fellowship Program. We especially
seek representation of Native American issues and perspectives that could
emanate from many disciplines but that could be housed in Anthropology,
Communication Studies, Education, English, History, Religion, and Sociology.
There are a number of diversity related minors and programs the successful
candidate could also interface with, including Native American Studies.
Graduate students with specializations in a broad range of anthropological
fields would also fit with our interests. Please forward the enclosed
announcement to qualified doctoral candidates who would benefit from the
opportunity to teach and hone professional skills in an excellent liberal
arts college in the heart of the Finger Lakes of Central New York. Ithaca
College is located in the Cayuga Nation homeland and recent revitalization
projects have brought the Cayuga home after a 200 year hiatus from their
ancestral homeland. These exciting developments and the proximity of the
Onondaga and Seneca Nations of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy
would offer informative perspectives to complement the applicants
area of study.
Interested individuals should apply online at www.icjobs.org, and submit
a C.V./Resume, a cover letter, a list of references and a transcript.
Questions about the online application should be directed to the Office
of Human Resources at (607)274-8000. Screening of applications will begin
