MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to eliminate the incidence of disease and
death caused by tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke; to reduce the
number of persons in our communities who use tobacco products; and to prevent
the use of tobacco by adults and youth in our communities.
2008 focuses on implementing and
advocating for programs and policies that prevent youth from becoming tobacco
users, protect people from the known hazards of second hand smoke and promote
cessation services for individuals wanting to quit tobacco. For
more information, contact Geralyn Karl, Tobacco Prevention
and Control
