The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is soliciting proposals from qualified organizations having the capability of designing, developing and implementing an evaluation of the process, outcome and impact of the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign, sponsored by the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. The goal of the evaluation will be to determine the extent to which changes in drug abuse-related knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors can be attributed to exposure to the media campaign. The evaluation will consist of: 1) a nationally-representative sample of parents and youth, using telephone surveys to reach parents and in-house surveys to reach youth, to assess the national impact of the campaign; 2) community surveys of parents and youth in 4-to-6 sentinel sites to determine more in-depth examination of the relationships between media exposure and changes in outcomes for parents and children; and 3) the relationship between the Campaign and community-based drug abuse prevention and other related activities, and the influence of these activities on outcomes for parents and children. The offeror will need to demonstrate their capability of conducting this multi-level data collection and analysis effort and produce reports on key data every six months over the five-year period. RFP No. N01DA-8-5063 will be available electronically on or about April 1, 1998, and may be accessed through the Internet at the following address: (URL: http://www.nida.nih.gov/RFP/RFPList.html) Please note that the RFP for this acquisition will be streamlined to include only the Work Statement, Deliverables and Reporting Requirements, Special Requirements and Mandatory Qualifications, Technical Evaluation Criteria, and other necessary Proposal Preparation Instructions.
