Required next actionMaintain on Atlas while open. Because the opportunity has very low N9+/QC commercial relevance and is approaching the 48-hour outreach cutoff, do not initiate applicant-facing outreach. Qualified governmental and nonprofit applicants should use the controlling ADPH RFP package and required forms for submission.
Broad Eligibility
Governmental agencies and not-for-profit organizations in Alabama demonstrating capacity in policy development, advocacy, community education and mobilization for youth tobacco prevention and control.
Atlas Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score 81/100. N9+ Direct Vendor Fit 0/100. Strong school/community public-health relevance, but the program is centered on tobacco-prevention policy, advocacy, education, mobilization and cessation. The public materials do not establish an allowable connected physical-exam, telehealth-device, or QC Healthcare vendor role, so Atlas will not force a commercial pathway.
The Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH) is accepting proposals from qualified governmental agencies and not-for-profit organizations for its 2026 Youth Tobacco Prevention and Control Program.
The initiative supports community and school-age youth tobacco prevention, including shifting social norms around tobacco use, protecting elementary, middle and high school-aged youth from nicotine initiation and secondhand smoke, educating youth about tobacco-industry marketing tactics, promoting cessation, and strengthening policy development, advocacy, community education and mobilization.
ADPH anticipates making up to 12 awards ranging from $50,000 to $125,000 each. Applications are due September 2, 2026 at 3:00 PM Central Time under the controlling RFP.
Atlas assessment: This is a meaningful youth/public-health and school-community prevention opportunity, but the published scope is policy, advocacy, education, mobilization and cessation rather than clinical equipment or telehealth technology. Atlas does not identify a defensible N9+ or QC Healthcare vendor pathway.
