Santa Cruz County (The Tobacco Education Program)

About This Partner/Organization

The goal of the Santa Cruz County Tobacco Education Program’s 2017-2021 work plan is

to coordinate and collaborate with key stakeholders in the community to reduce youth

access to tobacco and protect the community from toxic tobacco waste. Our primary

objective will build upon previous work in the retail environment and continue to focus on

tobacco retail licensing (TRL), youth access, and flavored tobacco products. Activities will

increase community knowledge and awareness about flavored tobacco products, and

support law enforcement and city staff in moving from adoption to successful enforcement

of new and existing TRL policies.
