Tobacco Free Gallatin
Everywhere...By Everyone...At all times!
The Gallatin County Tobacco Use Prevention Program in southwest
Montana is a community based program that is addressing the public health crisis caused by the use of all forms of commercial tobacco products.
Our plans for 2012 will use best practices and build on past successes to:
- Prevent local youth from beginning a lifetime of addiction to commercial tobacco products.
- Eliminate exposure to the hazardous effects of secondhand smoke and actively support the Montana Clean Indoor Air Act of 2005.
- Eliminate disparities related to tobacco use and its effects among certain population groups such as women of childbearing age, and low-income families.
- Help communities increase the number of housing and apartment complexes with smokefree designations.
If we choose to, we can end the tobacco epidemic in this country. But it’s going to take all of us—parents, teachers, health care providers, communities, states, schools, and policymakers—supporting policies, programs, and media campaigns that prevent tobacco use by youth and young adults.
