To bring together, the community and resources for cessation and prevention in an awareness campaign.
​
This campaign is focused on raising awareness as well as providing linkage to cessation services. Inadequate knowledge regarding smoking-related risks and the lack of awareness and access to evidence-based cessation services are barriers to quitting, and this campaign directly addresses that issue. Through our combined efforts we will increase the number of people who seek cessation services, as well as equip young people with the tools needed to navigate the deadly effects of tobacco and nicotine.​
​
Our partners deeply care about the health and well-being of our community, with special attention on Black, Latino, LGBTQ and other marginalized communities most targeted by big tobacco. We are committed to stepping up to the challenge and bringing an end to tobacco and nicotine use for both youth and adults in Central Ohio.
