The County’s Tobacco Prevention Program received the “Achieving Tobacco-Related Health Equity Among California’s Diverse Populations” grant from the California Department of Public Health. This grant development and negotiation of a five year budget and scope of work for this subcontract as part of the larger project. This required extensive consultation with the subcontractor and the state to plan objectives and budgets for five years of program implementation and ensure adherence to the rules and regulations of the grantor.

If this contract is not approved, County will not have access to Contractor’s technical assistance and program support services to implement policy aimed at reducing and preventing the use of tobacco products among populations with high rates of smoking and will not receive state funding.
