TPEP was launched in 1997 with a clear and simple mandate * to reduce
tobacco-related illness and death. Since its inception, TPEP has been a
comprehensive program, addressing the issues of tobacco use, initiation
and cessation. Oregon's anti-tobacco efforts are saving lives and money
(

).

Each year in Oregon, tobacco use kills nearly 7,000 people. It claims
more lives than motor vehicle crashes, suicide, AIDS, and murders
combined.

In addition to the cost of tobacco to Oregonians in lives, tobacco also
imposes a staggering financial burden - of particular concern at a time
of serious economic difficulties in the state. Tobacco use costs
Oregonians almost $2.4 billion annually.
