Summary:
|
Staff requests authorization to apply for a new Tobacco-Education Prevention Education (TUPE) grant for 6th through 12th grades. Mt. Diablo Unified School District has been the recipient of a TUPE grant since 2009 and this grant is ending June 30. 2014. The TUPE grant will provide funds for specific strategies and activities aimed at preventing middle and high school students from beginning to smoke and to assist those smokers who want to quit smoking with activities designed for this purpose. The secondary focus of the TUPE grant is to develop California’s next generation of tobacco-free advocates who represent a cross-section of California’s priority populations. The program will include general education curriculum for middle, high and alternative schools, intervention supports, cessation programs and youth development activities.
The CDE will fund TUPE projects for three years from July 1, 2014, through
June 30, 2017. The grant provides funds for personnel to supervise, coordinate and implement the program, professional development, curriculum, supplies and materials. If funded, the grant will provide up to $1,200,000 over three years.
