Regarding Component II, are we able to submit a proposal for an initiative that combines nutrition and physical activity or integrates all three topic areas together?
Applicants may propose multiple initiatives for Component II, each with their own separate narrative and budget. Each initiative should clearly indicate whether it is a tobacco initiative, a physical activity initiative, or a nutrition initiative. We cannot accept initiatives that combine topic areas (i.e., nutrition and physical activity) because we will have three separate review panels—one for physical activity, one for nutrition, and one for tobacco. Proposals that combine two or three of the topic areas will be considered nonresponsive and not entered into the objective review process. To clarify, this is only the case for Component II in the State FOA. For Component I, activities that combine the topic areas are acceptable. For the Community FOA applicants may submit applications in two categories: Category A (obesity/physical activity/nutrition) and Category B (tobacco prevention and control). Q: For component 2, we’re proposing an integrated effort that doesn’t lend itself to 3
