Tobacco Policy Solutions Save Lives

Tobacco control reduces the human and financial toll

We all want the same thing: a healthy community where we and our loved ones can thrive. We can all contribute to healthy communities both through our own behavior and by supporting polices that protect everyone. That’s why communities across Colorado are organizing to reduce the toll of tobacco.
