Subject: Open January 12: Community Partnership Program Grant Opportunities

Hello,

We are excited to announce that a request for proposals (RFP) will open on January 12, 2016.  Proposals will be accepted for Tier 1, Tier 2 or Tier 3 projects<http://www.ohsu.edu/xd/health/services/cancer/outreach-programs/community-grants/grant-tiers.cfm> that address a community's cancer-related needs.

All funded projects will have the opportunity to access technical assistance from OHSU faculty members in addition to webinars, professional development and other networking opportunities.

For this cycle only, the Community Partnership Program is also issuing a one-time special call for specific Tier 3 proposals involving obesity reduction at the community level. This is a unique opportunity to implement one of the following two evidence-based approaches:

*         Improving healthy food offerings at corner stores

*         Promotion of physical activity in communities directed toward meeting the Surgeon General's Step It Up! Call to Action<http://www.surgeongeneral.gov/library/calls/walking-and-walkable-communities/>.
Funding resulting from this special call would provide grantees with support, specialized training and technical assistance to assist communities to adapt, implement and evaluate their chosen intervention.

You will receive a follow-up email with additional details once the latest RFP is live on the Community Partnership Program website.  Please refer all questions to the Community Partnership Program team at (503) 494-1617 (option 6) or KnightCancerCRO at ohsu.edu<mailto:KnightCancerCRO at ohsu.edu>.

Thank you for your continued support of the Community Partnership Program.
