STEPP FY24 Innovative Interventions RFA Release

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s State Tobacco Education and Prevention Partnership (STEPP) Program released the FY24 Innovative Interventions Request for Applications (RFA) #40886 on August 19, 2022. The purpose of the RFA is to fund innovative approaches to address commercial tobacco-related inequities, with a focus on interventions that prioritize the groups with tobacco use rates above the state average. These initiatives will focus on collaborating with groups that represent and serve populations experiencing the most tobacco-related harms, with tailored approaches, where they live, work, play, and receive medical and social services. The deadline for application submission is October 28, 2022 at 5 p.m. MDT. Details of the funding opportunity, information regarding the question and answer process and application materials may be found here. A recording of the applicant webinar will be available on the Tobacco Funding Opportunities website until the application deadline has passed.
