Additional Information on Eligibility: For this program announcement, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has chosen to establish six networks that will develop a consortium of national networks to expand the science of tobacco control within populations experiencing tobacco-related disparities. The consortium of national networks will facilitate a process by which network participants will inform the tobacco prevention community about: the depth of industry targeting; the gaps in data used to describe the burden of tobacco; and strategies to implement proven or promising interventions in specific populations. Each Network will build capacity in communities by recruiting individuals and organizations to facilitate learning and information sharing across and within network participants. The six organizations selected to represent the population groups selected for this Cooperative Agreement are a result of the overwhelming scientific evidence demonstrating these populations continue to experience significant tobacco-related disparities. Prevalence of current cigarette smoking varies substantially across populations and subpopulations. The tobacco industry targets vulnerable populations by promoting and advertising its products in these communities. Competition is limited to: . Public nonprofit organizations . Private nonprofit organizations . Community-based organizations . Faith-Based Organizations . Indian tribes . Indian tribal organizations
