Preventing Youth Smoking Through Community Education: The Tobacco 21 Law

About This Grant:

Healthy Androscoggin will create a mass-reach health communication intervention that disseminates information to the community at large about the Tobacco 21 law and how it prevents youth initiation. With the assistance of a contracted marketing company, Healthy Androscoggin will combine information about why the law is important and include links to cessation resources, such as the Maine Tobacco Helpline and Quitlink.
