Public Awareness and Outreach Campaigns

The contract seeks to design and implement public education campaigns aimed at promoting tobacco cessation resources using media outreach, social marketing, and community engagement strategies. The initiative is intended to raise awareness and encourage behavior change across Mississippi by leveraging targeted communication channels and grassroots efforts to connect individuals with cessation tools and support services. Work under this subcontract must align with statewide public health goals and require culturally competent, data-driven approaches to maximize reach and effectiveness among at-risk populations. Submissions are due by June 3, 2026, with the opportunity posted on May 4, 2026, under NAICS code 541810 for advertising and related services. The contracting entity is the Mississippi Department of Health, and performance will take place within the state. The subcontract nature of this award suggests it may be part of a broader initiative managed by a prime contractor, and bidders should ensure compliance with state-specific requirements and public health priorities. All proposals must demonstrate a clear methodology for measuring impact, broad community collaboration, and sustainable engagement beyond the campaign’s initial rollout.
