Grant Overview
Vermont's youth tobacco prevention operations face constraints from the state's dispersed population and limited dedicated staff positions. With 179 towns spread across 14 counties, many school districts operate with a single health educator covering multiple buildings. The Vermont Department of Health 2022 youth risk survey shows past-30-day cigarette use at 6.1% among high school students, yet enforcement resources remain concentrated in Chittenden County.
Operational gaps include inconsistent implementation of evidence-based curricula across supervisory unions and limited access to current data on emerging products such as flavored vapes in smaller districts. Transportation costs for regional trainings further reduce participation from Northeast Kingdom schools.
Applications must detail current staffing patterns for prevention activities and provide letters from supervisory union superintendents confirming release time for program delivery. Vermont requires inclusion of student-led components that align with the state's existing Youth Advisory Council structure rather than creating parallel groups.
The state review emphasizes measurable changes in school policy adoption, such as updated tobacco-free campus rules, alongside student knowledge scores collected through standardized pre- and post-tests. Funding directs resources toward supervisory unions that have not yet received prior state tobacco prevention grants within the last three fiscal years.
Vermont's approach mandates coordination with the state's centralized education data system for outcome tracking, differing from New Hampshire's more decentralized reporting model.
