Amendment 35 report: "Making a
Difference in Colorado's Health
Tobacco is the leading cause of preventable death in Colorado and the State Education and Prevention Partnership (STEPP) was created to combat this deadly public health issue. STEPP administers a grant program to non-profits and government agencies working in tobacco control in Colorado. This grant program is funded by the 2004 tobacco tax increase, which was a statewide ballot initiative approved by voters. In addition to providing funding, the new law also created a Review Committee, charged with providing oversight to STEPP to ensure tax dollars are being spent appropriately and efficiently. This Review Committee also makes all grant funding recommendations to the State Board of Health for final approval or denial. Review Committee Vacancy The Colorado Board of Health seeks applicants to fill the committee position for a representative of a statewide physician association. The new deadline for applications is September 15, 2009. Please see the announcement and application form below.
