Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA DP20 2001
The National and State Tobacco Control Program (CDC RFA DP20-2001) is a CDC funding opportunity run through the Office on Smoking and Health (OSH) to support comprehensive, statewide efforts to reduce illness and death linked to commercial tobacco use and secondhand smoke exposure. It is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement through the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), under CFDA 93.387. The program is designed to help states carry out the core work of the National Tobacco Control Program (NTCP) in ways that measurably reduce tobacco-related chronic disease, disability, and premature mortality across the United States.
The opportunity is built around four central NTCP goals. First, it aims to prevent young people and young adults from starting to use commercial tobacco products, recognizing that most lifelong tobacco use begins early and that prevention has long-term health and cost benefits. Second, it seeks to eliminate exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS), supporting policies and environments that protect people in workplaces, public places, and homes from involuntary exposure. Third, it focuses on promoting quitting among both adults and youth, emphasizing evidence-based cessation support and systems that make quitting easier and more accessible. Fourth, it prioritizes identifying and eliminating tobacco-related disparities, meaning states are expected to pay attention to populations and communities that face higher burdens of tobacco use or secondhand smoke exposure due to factors such as geography, income, race and ethnicity, occupation, behavioral health conditions, or other social and structural drivers.
Funding under this NOFO is organized into two connected components. The first is the National Tobacco Control Program (State Based) component, which provides the main block of support for state tobacco control infrastructure, programming, and statewide interventions. CDC anticipated approximately 67 million dollars per year for this component to fund 51 applicants, aligning with the expectation that states implement broad, population-level tobacco control strategies rather than isolated projects. The second component is the Commercial Tobacco Use and Dependence Treatment Support System, which is intended to ensure adequate cessation treatment capacity nationwide, especially quitline capacity, during a national media campaign. CDC anticipated approximately 16 million dollars per year for this component and planned to fund all 53 applicants for this portion, reflecting the need for consistent, ready-to-scale quitline and treatment support when national demand increases.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, and the NOFO anticipated 53 awards total. The stated award ceiling is 3,600,000 dollars. Applications for the original cycle were due April 3, 2020, with electronic submissions required by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Because this is a cooperative agreement, recipients should expect substantial involvement from CDC compared with a standard grant, typically including collaboration on planning, implementation support, performance measurement, and alignment with national strategies and evidence-based approaches.
A notable clarification in the announcement is that CDCs use of the term tobacco refers specifically to commercial tobacco. The program explicitly distinguishes this from the sacred and traditional use of tobacco by some American Indian communities, indicating that funded efforts are aimed at reducing harms tied to commercial products and commercial industry-driven tobacco use rather than culturally significant traditional practices.Apply for CDC RFA DP20 2001
