Program Description and Accomplishments
The Denali Commission, an Agency of the Department
of Commerce, which began in 2001, is modeled on the
Appalachian Regional Commission and directed by Federal
and State (Alaska) co-chairs. Its core mission is
economic development in rural Alaska. The $39,283,000
appropriated to HRSA for the Commission in FY 2007
was combined with other resources for planning, designing
and constructing primary health care facilities in
the State. Resources were also used to assist other
facilities, such as hospitals and facilities that
provide mental health services.
This program was covered in OMB’s combined PART
assessment of HRSA’s Rural Health Activities
during 2003. The rural health activities received
a rating of Adequate. (See earlier Office of Rural
Health Policy Summary Request.)
Funding includes costs associated with grant reviews,
processing of grants through the Grants Administration
Tracking and Evaluation System (GATES) and HRSA’s
electronic handbook, and follow-up performance reviews.

Budget
Request
There is no FY 2009 request for this program. The
needs in this region can best be met by other existing
programs, such as the Health Center program which
can better address the health system delivery problems
in Alaska.
