Coalition members, who will serve for 30 months, will coordinate efforts to educate county residents about the dangers of exposure to second-hand smoke and participate in legislative activities at local and state levels.
Applicants should have a desire to affect change in societal norms regarding tobacco use, eliminating exposure to harmful chemicals in second-hand smoke, and helping to stop youth access to tobacco products. Non-smokers, previous smokers and current smokers are encouraged to apply.
The first scheduled meeting of the Coalition will be on Feb. 14 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Lake Family Resource Center, 896 Lakeport Blvd. in Lakeport. A light Valentine’s Day lunch will be served.
If you are interested in serving on the LCTCP Tobacco Coalition, please call Michael Rupe, program director, at 262-1611, Extension 118.
