Opportunity Summary:

The National State-Based Tobacco Control Programs opportunity is a continuation funding notice from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC), housed within the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC is expected to have an ongoing, hands-on role beyond simply providing funds, often through collaboration, technical assistance, and shared program direction with award recipients. The overall focus of the opportunity is public health, specifically supporting state-based efforts to prevent and reduce tobacco use and the harms linked to it.

This announcement is identified by Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP15 150902CONT16 and is categorized as a continuation, indicating it is intended to extend or continue existing work rather than launch a brand-new standalone program. The program is tied to CFDA number 93.305, a catalog identifier that points to CDC tobacco-related prevention and control assistance. The posting and creation dates are both October 22, 2015, with an original and current closing date of December 11, 2015, meaning the application window for this specific notice ran through that date without later extensions listed in the source data.

In terms of who can apply, eligibility is labeled as "Others," with the instruction to consult the announcement text under an "Additional Information on Eligibility" field for the exact definitions and allowable applicant types. In practice, state-based tobacco control continuation awards are commonly associated with state health departments or comparable governmental public health entities, but the record provided does not spell this out, so the authoritative eligibility would be whatever the full notice specifies in that referenced section.

The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement and the activity category is health, reinforcing that the supported work is programmatic public health action rather than basic research. The opportunity anticipates up to 50 awards, which aligns with a nationwide state-level footprint. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically signals that a single maximum award amount is not being stated in the summary record, may vary by recipient, or is otherwise defined within the full funding announcement rather than in the abstracted fields shown here.

Overall, the opportunity is best understood as CDC support for ongoing, state-based tobacco control programming under a continuation mechanism, administered through cooperative agreements, with a broad expected national reach (approximately 50 recipients) and details such as exact eligibility and funding levels to be confirmed in the full text of the notice associated with this opportunity number.
