About
America On Track continued to implement a Tobacco Prevention Project (an innovative, comprehensive, community-based program that is being implemented in the North Region of Orange County - funded by the Orange County Health Care Agency). Our goal is to lower youth access to tobacco. This project includes, among numerous other objectives, working with 3 target high schools, conducting tobacco and e-cigarette prevention education presentations to over 1,200 high school students, developing meaningful and active youth task forces at each high school, and conducting outreach with parents from each of the 3 high schools. Also, the project includes working with all of the tobacco retailers within a 2-mile radius of the high schools and partnering with law enforcement to assess illegal sales to youth as well as educating the merchants on youth access laws, developing and institutionalizing a 5 Star Merchant reward program and a Social Sources awareness campaign.
