Smoke-Free Lawrence County working together on tobacco control efforts

LAWRENCE CO. – The Smoke-Free Lawrence County Coalition is a group of community members who work together on local tobacco control efforts.

Hoosier Uplands Smoke-Free Lawrence County Coalition is excited to begin meeting again and is looking for community members to join in furthering education given, and action taken, with the purpose of protecting the health and wellness of Hoosiers against tobacco harm.

Everyone deserves clean air. Secondhand smoke contains more than 4,000 chemicals and 43 known carcinogens. Secondhand smoke causes heart disease, cancer, and other serious health hazards. Let’s help Bedford pass a local ordinance to protect all workers.
