Pennsylvania: The Pennsylvania Asthma Partnership will award a total of $35,000 to community-based and not-for-profit groups that work to address asthma in the community, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports. The partnership seeks to "develop and implement a collaborative, sustainable statewide asthma plan that expands and improves the quality of asthma care," according to the Tribune-Review. The project also seeks to eliminate racial and ethnic disparities among low-income Pennsylvania residents with asthma. Organizations will be awarded up to $5,000 each for one year. Eligible groups must cover at least one goal from the 2006 Pennsylvania Asthma Action Plan and submit proposals by Aug. 1 (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, 7/13).
