[HealthyTribes] Surgeon General's Report materials

[Modie Jonathan N]

TPEP grantees,

As promised, attached are materials related to this morning's release of the Surgeon General's Report, "Preventing Tobacco Use Among Youth and Young Adults." Included are:


*         A customizable, "Swiss cheese" press release.

*         Key messages.

*         Executive summary.

*         Fact sheet.

I also have attached the Oregon Public Health Division's press release that was sent out just moments ago. Feel free to use whatever you like from it.

If you want to see the whole SG report, and support materials, just visit http://surgeongeneral.gov/library/preventing-youth-tobacco-use/.

Don't forget to refer to your county's Tobacco Fact Sheet for local statistics: https://partners.health.oregon.gov/preventionwellness/tobaccoprevention/pages/countyfacts.aspx

Finally, this is a great opportunity to talk about your local programs related to helping reduce or prevent tobacco use among young people in your community. Think about school-based programs, materials you've been distributing, your work with other community partners to get the word out to youth, and your plans for the future. Be creative -- think about those projects in particular that engage and involve young people, that get them to help inform their peers about the dangers of tobacco use.

If you have any questions, please let me know. And thanks for all the great work you do.

Jonathan
