EQCAI (Los Angeles Regional Initiative to Reduce Tobacco-Related Disparities in the LGBTQ Community)

About This Partner/Organization

Equality California Institute's (EQCA) OUT Against Big Tobacco program aims to reduce

rates of tobacco use in the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ)

community in Los Angeles County. The major goal of the program is to work with local

jurisdictions with significant LGBTQ populations to strengthen existing tobacco control

policies that disproportionately target communities of color, low-income, and other

marginalized communities.
