Introduction

As you know, ICF International, on behalf of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is conducting an evaluation to explore programs that have supported and helped to build the capacity of the CDC’s National Comprehensive Cancer Control (NCCCP) and State-Based Tobacco Control Programs via training and technical assistance (TTA). Specifically, we are conducting case studies of organizations funded under two different cooperative agreements –Consortium of National Networks to Impact Populations Experiencing Tobacco-Related and Cancer Health Disparities (DP13-1314) (hereafter referred to as DP13-1314) and National Support to Enhance Implementation of Comprehensive Cancer Control Activities (DP13-1315) (hereafter referred to as DP13-1315). The purpose of this interview is to gather your feedback about the TTA your organization has received from one of the organizations funded by CDC, including details about the type, quantity, and quality of TTA received. Do you have any questions before we begin?

[Pause to allow for questions].

Great, I’m going to begin by reviewing the informed consent.

[Read informed consent statement. If respondent gives verbal consent, proceed with the interview. If the respondent declines participation, thank the respondent and end the interview]
