Tobacco Resources and Supporting Materials

Tobacco Resources
The sources of materials are listed rather than all of the available materials. Included here are non-profit and governmental providers that have developed excellent materials and programs at low or no cost. These sources can provide information to help you develop your policy (such as fact sheets on the risks from secondhand smoke) or smoking cessation support. Ask these sources about materials on policy and cessation at the same time.
