Tobacco Free Living Action Team to Meet
The Healthy St. Mary’s Partnership Tobacco Free Living Action Team will meet from 9 to 10 am May 11 at St. Mary’s Church of Christ, 44850 St. Andrew’s Church Road, California, MD 20619.
The Tobacco Free Living action team of the Healthy St. Mary’s Partnership is dedicated to improving tobacco related health outcomes in St. Mary’s County. Partners are now collaborating to implement evidence-based strategies that support local tobacco free living.
The use of tobacco products and exposure to second-hand smoke combined represent the number one cause of preventable deaths in the U.S. Smoking harms nearly every organ of the body, causing many diseases and affecting the health of smokers in general. Quitting smoking has both immediate long-term benefits.
The help of the community is needed to most effectively help tobacco users quit use of cigarettes and other tobacco products, prevent youth and others from starting to use tobacco products, and to help nonsmokers avoid exposure to second-hand smoke.
Get involved. New members are always welcome. To be notified of upcoming events and meetings, please sign up for membership in the Healthy St. Mary’s Partnership.
