SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submission of Funding Application #28-500 to the State
Department of Education in the amount of $149, 167 for the period
July 1, 1990 through December 31, 1991 for the Teen Age Smoking
Cessation Project.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Approval of this one-time-only grant will result in $149, 167 from
the State Department of Education. No County funds are required.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
In an effort to avert smoking behavior in teenagers, and to work
with Mt. Diablo School District supporting their ban on smoking on
each school campus, an intense smoking education/cessation program
will be developed. This program will deal with health, financial
and social problems associated with smoking behaviors. An
additional specific cessation program with Lift Transitions, a
local community based agency will strengthen the cessation
component of this program.
This new program will use student workers who have been specifi-
cally trained in teen approaches and smoking education. Mt. Diablo
School District is fully supportive of this program and has
included this proposal in their overall DATE (Drugs, Alcohol and
Tobacco Education) proposal.
In order to meet the deadline for submission, the application has
been forwarded to the State, but subject to Board approval. Four
certified copies of the Board Order authorizing submission of the
application should be returned to the Contracts and Grants Unit for
submission to the State Department of Education.
