San Francisco (Tobacco Free Project)

The San Francisco County Department of Public Health’s Tobacco Free Project (TFP)

aims to reduce the availability of mentholated and flavored tobacco products that are

disproportionately targeted to youth and communities of color; limit tobacco promoting

influences by offering incentives to retailers to promote healthy products through Healthy

Retail SF; and engage youth in tobacco use prevention and control activities through the

Community Action Model (CAM) program; set a minimum price or limit coupons and

promotions for coupons to reduce use rates of youth and low-income communities; and

engage four faith community campuses to adopt a voluntary wellness policies, including

smoke-free campus. These objectives were prioritized and identified by the Tobacco Free

Coalition’s Communities of Excellence assessment process.
