(FOA)-Building Capacity to Reduce Tobacco Inequities in the South and Midwest; July 17, 2019

 

Agency

Robert Wood Johnson Foundation

 

Description

RWJF seeks to support and engage black community members, persons of lower socioeconomic status, and rural residents in the South and Midwest in order to increase their ability to advocate for stronger, locally or regionally driven tobacco-control and prevention policies and practices. We are interested in and encourage applications that include regranting to support community-based organizations or efforts. We are also interested in organizations partnering together to oversee projects; and expect that funded organizations will work closely with organizations that focus on commercial tobacco control and prevention, including organizations that are currently funded by RWJF, such as the American Nonsmokers Rights Foundation and the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.

 

Awards: up to $4,000,000 for as many as 6 projects; individual project budgets should not exceed $1,500,000; for up to 24 months
