The Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) seeks qualified Applicants to implement a Nutrition Incentive Program (NIP) Project. The purpose of the NIP Project is to increase the purchase of fruits and vegetables by low-income households participating in the United States Department of Agriculture Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP). Services must be provided in accordance with the specifications contained in this Request for Application (RFA). Applicants should reference Section II, Scope of Grant Project, for further detailed information regarding the purpose, background, eligible population, eligible activities, and requirements.

This award mechanism focuses on increasing implementation of evidence-based strategies to ensure that all Texans benefit from the cancer prevention knowledge that we currently have. CPRIT seeks to fund multilevel interventions to reduce cancer risk, disease burden, and cancer disparities. Modifiable risk behaviors include tobacco use, obesity, physical inactivity, unhealthy eating, alcohol use, sun exposure, HPV vaccination, Hepatitis B vaccination, and environmental/ occupational cancer exposures. Applications should also assess and address social determinants that contribute to cancer burden and disparities (e.g., cultural factors, unmet needs, access barriers). Interventions and communications should be structured to address the unique circumstances of the population to be served.

The Opioid Abatement Fund Council (OAFC) seeks to combat opioid overdoses in Texas by awarding funds to implement a statewide program that will distribute the opioid overdose reversal medication naloxone where it is needed most, and provide related training, including airway clearance techniques. The Texas Legislature created the OAFC in 2021 to ensure funds collected through lawsuits against pharmaceutical companies are used fairly and efficiently to combat the opioid crisis in Texas. The OAFC is made up of 13 appointed experts and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts (CPA) as the non-voting presiding officer.

This award mechanism seeks to fund projects that will facilitate the dissemination and implementation of successful CPRIT Prevent Program-funded, evidence-based cancer prevention and control interventions across Texas. The proposed project should be able to develop one or more "products" based on the results of a previously CPRIT Prevention Program-funded intervention project. The proposed project should describe and package strategies or approaches for dissemination to other partners, settings, and populations in the state.

This award mechanism seeks to support the delivery of evidence-based clinical services to screen for cancer and pre-cancer in underserved populations who do not have adequate access to cancer early detection interventions and health care, bringing together networks of public health and community partners to carry out programs tailored for their communities. Projects should identify cancers that cause the most burden in the community, have nationally recommended screening methods, and use evidence-based methods to screen for these cancers.
