Subject: SAVE THE DATE: Ballot Measure 108 Tobacco Tax funding

Dear Local Public Health Administrators, Health Officers, and Tribal Health Directors,

Please join OHA staff and members of the Ballot Measure 108 (tobacco tax) Advisory Group on Thursday, 9/23, from 2:30-4:30 pm to review and discuss the Advisory Group's recommendations for how new tobacco tax revenues can be allocated to reduce tobacco use inequities.

Zoom link: https://www.zoomgov.com/j/1605249933?pwd=R1JvVjNCeVZJOGVGZFNsczZuMWpUZz09.

Agenda and related materials to come soon.

As a reminder, OHA convened the 21-member CBO Advisory Group to ensure the allocation process centered community voice and shared power with organizations who are experiencing the greatest tobacco burden and have not had a seat at the table in past decision-making processes.

We will use our time together to hear from Advisory Group members about their recommendations, ask questions, and discuss how OHA, CBOs, LPHAs, and other public health partners can best work together to reduce tobacco use inequities in Oregon.

OHA staff are also identifying additional dates/times for engagement opportunities.

Please let us know if you have any questions in the meantime.

Thank you,

Cara Biddlecom
