San Pasqual Tribe (The San Pasqual Anti-Tobacco Disparities Project)

About This Partner/Organization

The San Pasqual Anti-Tobacco Disparities Project will develop and implement policies to

limit the amount of tobacco waste on tribal lands alongside creating smoke-free outdoor

recreational areas such as parks, playing fields and outdoor events. The project will

educate San Pasqual Tribal Members and their families on commercial tobacco use, the

dangers of secondhand and thirdhand smoke exposure and the creation and adoption of

smoke-free in home pledges(voluntary for home owners and mandatory for HUD

subsidized housing on tribal lands). Through this tobacco grant the San Pasqual tribe

anticipates community engagement, youth interaction and education, peer to peer training

and leadership development in the prevention of tobacco and nicotine abuse including

vaping devices.
