Nevada County (Nevada County Tobacco Use Prevention Program)

About This Partner/Organization

The purpose of the 2017-2021 Nevada County Tobacco Use Prevention Program

(NCTUPP) is to improve the health of the residents of the county by implementing

measures aimed at reducing secondhand smoke as well as secondhand aerosol

exposure derived from the use of electronic nicotine delivery devices in non-recreational

areas. We are also committed to reducing chronic disease and premature death

attributable to tobacco product use through motivating changes in the retail environment.

Lastly, we resolve to build advocacy for addressing the social determinants of health,

which disproportionately affect the health of priority populations and increase the human

and economic burden of chronic disease.
