53. PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT WITH CHILD CRISIS ARIZONA FOR TOBACCO PREVENTION AND CESSATION EDUCATION Approve the retroactive Partnership Agreement between Child Crisis Arizona (CCA), and Maricopa County by and through its Department of Public Health (MCDPH), to provide education for tobacco prevention and cessation. This agreement is non-financial, and the term is from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2027. This partnership seeks to support CCA's mission of providing safe environments and essential services by integrating tobacco-related prevention resources, training opportunities, and referral materials into existing programs and outreach efforts. Together, MCDPH and CCA will work to increase awareness of the dangers of tobacco use, reduce exposure to secondhand smoke, and connect individuals and families with evidence-based cessation services such as the Arizona Smokers’ Helpline (ASHLine), thereby advancing shared public health goals. This agreement is non-financial and does not affect the County general fund. (C-86-26-018-X-00)
