Colleges and Universities Go Smoke Free August 1 - July 2nd, 2010
On August 1, 2010, a new Arkansas law will make it illegal to smoke on all state-supported college and university campuses. The Arkansas Clean Air On Campus Act of 2009 places Arkansas in a unique position to take national leadership in providing healthy learning environments. The Tobacco Prevention and Cessation Program of the Arkansas Department of Health provided support to these campuses by distributing toolkits to answer questions, give ideas for enforcement, and prepare students, faculty, staff and visitors for the new legislation. TPCP welcomes the opportunity to partner with you and offer its assistance to help your local campus adjust to the upcoming changes.
Staff at TPCP will soon be requesting feedback and evaluation comments on the helpfulness of the toolkits. Click here to see the toolkit: http://www.stampoutsmoking.com/programsFull.html#oxygenProject
