- Description
- The Department of Health and Human Service, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has collaborated with the Smoking Cessation Leadership Center (SCLC) on a portfolio of activities to design and promote tobacco cessation efforts in the behavioral health field. Over the past three years SAMHSA and the SCLC have jointly supported over 100 states and organizations to undertake tobacco cessation efforts in behavioral health settings (the Pioneers for Smoking Cessation). SAMHSA has also worked with SCLC to run several state leadership academies designed to engage policymakers and stakeholders related to tobacco cessation among people with mental and substance use disorders. The objectives of this effort is to identify a contractor to (1) continue to develop smoking cessation efforts in the behavioral health field, with a focus on supporting State/Territorial/Tribal level policy change (2) raise awareness and increase understanding among communities, advocates, policymakers, funders and stakeholders about the issue of tobacco use among people with mental and substance use disorders and effective smoking cessation strategies for this population; and (3) work with existing SAMHSA supported activities like the Pioneers for Smoking Cessation and the Leadership Academies for Wellness and Smoking Cessation to ensure the sustainability and effectiveness of these efforts. All interested parties should respond in writing (only) to Darnese M. Wilkerson at darnese.wilkerson@psc.hhs.gov by no later than 5 pm on August 31, 2012. Please respond with a capabilities statement illustrating capacity to perform the work objectives described above.
