About This Partner/Organization

The CEH (Communities Energized for Health) project addresses exposure to secondhand smoke where Californians live, work, and play. To one extent or another each of the project's three objectives will: 1) Conduct educational community outreach; 2) Collaborate with similar projects funded by the California Tobacco Control Program; 3) Build relationships with local housing leadership including members of the Yolo Public Housing Authority Commission; 4) Build relationships with managers and tribal council members of the United Auburn Indian Community; 5) Mobilize Public Housing tenants in Yolo County; 6) Develop county-specific and project specific educational materials; 7) Use local media to inform the public of project activities and increase local support for project objectives; 8) Utilize strategic planning sessions with target groups and local tobacco control advocates to plan project strategies; and 9) Evaluate and document project challenges, barriers, and lessons learned.
