Opportunity Summary:
The FY11 Minority Youth Tobacco Elimination Project (MYTEP) was a discretionary federal funding opportunity offered as a cooperative agreement by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. Its central goal was to demonstrate, in real community settings, how well evidence-based tobacco prevention and cessation strategies can work for populations that have historically faced disproportionate tobacco-related harms or gaps in tailored programming. The program specifically targeted racial and ethnic minority youth, including African American, Hispanic/Latino, Asian American and Pacific Islander, and American Indian and Alaska Native youth, as well as low socioeconomic status young women. The intended age range for the young women focus was 13 to 26, reflecting an emphasis on adolescence through young adulthood, when tobacco initiation and progression can be heavily influenced by social environment, targeted marketing, stress, and access to prevention and quitting resources.
MYTEP was structured around two connected components designed to work together. Component 1, the Minority Youth Tobacco Elimination Demonstration, was intended for organizations that would directly implement tobacco prevention and cessation activities in their local areas. Up to four grantees were expected to be selected for this demonstration component. These grantees were responsible for identifying the specific needs of their local target populations and putting strategies into practice that reflect those needs. A key expectation was that implementation would not be generic; it would be guided by evidence and adapted for the cultural, linguistic, and practical realities of the communities being served. Component 1 awardees were also expected to rely on expert guidance and recommendations produced through Component 2, making the project a coordinated effort rather than a set of isolated local initiatives.
Component 2, the MYTEP Program Support and Evaluation Center, was designed as the technical backbone of the entire effort and was limited to a single awardee. The Component 2 grantee was expected to convene and work with a panel of tobacco prevention and cessation experts who had knowledge of, and experience with, the needs of racial and ethnic minority populations. This Center would review existing tobacco prevention and cessation reports, research, and guidelines, then translate that information into practical recommendations for tailoring strategies to the targeted communities. In effect, Component 2 served as a centralized support and evaluation hub, helping ensure that the demonstration sites in Component 1 were using approaches grounded in evidence while also being meaningfully adapted to local contexts.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on June 2, 2011, with an application closing date of July 1, 2011, and an archive date of July 31, 2011. The program anticipated making a total of five awards across both components (up to four for the demonstration sites and one for the support and evaluation center). Individual awards were expected to fall between $175,000 (floor) and $250,000 (ceiling). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, lowering the barrier for organizations that might have strong community reach but limited ability to provide matching funds. The funding was associated with CFDA number 93.004, Cooperative Agreements to Improve the Health Status of Minority Populations, and fell under the Health activity category.
Eligibility was listed broadly as "Others" with a note to consult additional eligibility information in the full announcement, and the synopsis text itself did not spell out further restrictions. The announcement also included a standard access note directing applicants who had trouble obtaining the full posting to the Grants.gov Contact Center, including phone, hours, and email. Overall, MYTEP can be read as a two-tiered demonstration-and-support model intended to prove not just whether evidence-based tobacco interventions work, but whether they can be scaled and adapted effectively for minority youth and low socioeconomic status young women in diverse real-world settings.
FY11 Minority Youth Tobacco Elimination Project (MYTEP) - FAQs
What is the FY11 Minority Youth Tobacco Elimination Project (MYTEP)?
MYTEP was a discretionary federal funding opportunity offered as a cooperative agreement by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The focus was on demonstrating, in real community settings, how effective evidence-based tobacco prevention and cessation strategies can be when they are tailored for populations that have experienced disproportionate tobacco-related harms or gaps in culturally appropriate programming.
What was the main goal of MYTEP?
The central goal was to demonstrate how well evidence-based tobacco prevention and cessation approaches work in real-world communities when they are adapted to meet the cultural, linguistic, and practical needs of the targeted populations.
Which populations did MYTEP specifically target?
MYTEP specifically targeted racial and ethnic minority youth, including African American, Hispanic/Latino, Asian American and Pacific Islander, and American Indian and Alaska Native youth. It also targeted low socioeconomic status young women.
What age range was emphasized for the young women focus?
The intended age range for the low socioeconomic status young women focus was 13 to 26, reflecting an emphasis on adolescence through young adulthood.
Why did MYTEP emphasize ages 13 to 26 for young women?
The program emphasized this life stage because tobacco initiation and progression can be strongly influenced during adolescence and young adulthood by factors such as social environment, targeted marketing, stress, and access to prevention and quitting resources.
How was MYTEP structured?
MYTEP was structured around two connected components designed to operate together: (1) the Minority Youth Tobacco Elimination Demonstration (local implementation sites) and (2) the MYTEP Program Support and Evaluation Center (centralized technical support and evaluation).
What was Component 1 (the Minority Youth Tobacco Elimination Demonstration)?
Component 1 supported organizations that would directly implement tobacco prevention and cessation activities in their local areas. These grantees were expected to identify the needs of their local target populations and implement strategies that were evidence-based and adapted to local community realities.
How many awards were anticipated for Component 1?
Up to four grantees were expected to be selected for the Component 1 demonstration sites.
What was expected of Component 1 awardees in terms of program design?

How were Component 1 and Component 2 intended to work together?
Component 1 awardees were expected to rely on expert guidance and recommendations produced through Component 2, making MYTEP a coordinated model rather than a collection of isolated local projects.
What was Component 2 (the MYTEP Program Support and Evaluation Center)?
Component 2 was designed as the technical backbone of the initiative and served as a centralized support and evaluation hub for the overall MYTEP effort.
How many awards were anticipated for Component 2?
