The amendment pertains to the Helpers Program for Behavioral Health, which is part of a federal grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for the National and State Tobacco Control Program.

The amendment outlines the University of Arizona's scope of work to address tobacco use in behavioral health populations, with a budget of $295,000 for the period of April 29, 2024 to April 28, 2025. Key tasks include working with four behavioral health system partners to update and expand the Helpers Behavioral Health (BH) program, develop training and support materials, expand to additional clinic sites serving rural and border populations, and increase tobacco cessation services. The University will provide monthly reports, develop an annual action plan, and create new training resources, including a branded mobile app and Spanish-language materials. The contract is funded through a federal award with an indirect cost rate of 10% and involves implementing a clinical intervention system to support tobacco cessation among behavioral health clients.
