Tobacco Prevention and Control-Related Public Health Law Technical Assistance

health law experts in order to implement the strategies proven to reduce morbidity and mortality due to tobacco use. An awareness of public health law can 1) inform NTCP recipients and their partners as they identify, develop, and implement evidence-based PSE changes; and 2) provide technical assistance on public health law as it relates to tobacco control is crucial for achieving program goals. This funding opportunity builds on the successes of CDC-RFA-DP16-1610, Tobacco Prevention and Control Related Public Health Law Technical Assistance. National access to technical assistance also assures that all programs, regardless of geographic location or organizational resources, have tailored, tobacco control-specific expertise available to support their efforts. Note: Public health law technical assistance should not be construed as legal advice and does NOT replace an NTCP recipient or partner organization's own counsel or legal advice.
