The primary focus of SAPRP grants for this round of funding in the areas of alcohol and other drugs will be to reduce the harmful effects of substance use disorders and addictions by improving the quality of care for the millions of Americans who need treatment. To help achieve this objective, SAPRP will make grants of under $100,000 and larger grants of between $100,000 and $400,000.
The primary focus of SAPRP grants for this round of funding in tobacco will be in three primary areas: (1)policies targeted at preventing or reducing tobacco use and exposure (e.g., comprehensive clean indoor air policies, tobacco tax increases, reduced co-pays for tobacco treatment); (2) health care system strategies that seek to increase consumer demand for and use of proven cessation products/services; and, (3) tracking and evaluating the tobacco control policy gains achieved over the past decade. As a guiding principle, at least two-thirds of all SAPRP’s tobacco-related grantmaking will be focused on these objectives and will be limited to grants of under $100,000 only.
Anyone interested in applying is encouraged to contact Nancy or Barbara at GOCCC.
