Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota invites proposals to facilitate day-to-day management of the Minnesotans for a Smoke-Free Generation coalition. This includes working closely with coalition members to implement strategies and tactics to advance the coalition’s strategic policy priorities.
Minnesotans for a Smoke-Free Generation is a coalition of more than 60 organizations that share a common goal of saving Minnesota youth from a lifetime of addiction to commercial tobacco. The coalition supports policies that reduce youth smoking and nicotine addiction, including increasing tobacco prices, ending the sale of menthol and all flavored tobacco products, and funding tobacco prevention and treatment programs. The coalition recently adopted a new strategic plan to center its work in racial and health equity, and implementation of this plan will be a major priority of person/people who perform the services described in this proposal. These services will be overseen by the coalition’s leadership team.
For more information about the coalition, please visit their website. We invite individuals and teams of people to submit proposals. Individuals can construct their proposals to include sub-contractors. In keeping with our commitment to advance racial and health equity, we especially invite and will give special consideration to proposals from women and Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian American, and immigrant and refugee community applicants.
