Tobacco Free Partnership Presents at Rotary
February 1, 2022

On February 1st, 2022, Tobacco Program Manager Courtney Moyett and Tobacco Prevention Specialist Holly Mixon were invited to present at the Rotary Club of Okeechobee. Mixon and Moyett presented several policy areas of the local tobacco program but focused mainly on SWAT club activities and Tobacco Free Schools efforts. This was an excellent opportunity to introduce community members and stakeholders to the work towards tobacco free policies happening in their county.  Rotarians were invited to the next Tobacco Free Partnership of Okeechobee County if they wish to take a more active role in tobacco prevention and education locally. 

     

The Tobacco Free Partnership of Okeechobee County is dedicated to the creation of tobacco-free social norms through a combination of community education, youth advocacy and changes in local tobacco policies.  The mission of the Tobacco Free Partnership of Okeechobee County reflects the goals of the CDC Best Practices, especially in regard to changes in local tobacco policies to create and promote tobacco-free social norms.

The Tobacco Free Partnership of Okeechobee County is facilitated by the QuitDoc Foundation. Learn more at www.quitdoc.com.  To learn more about the partnership or to get involved, visit: tfp-okeechobee.org or email Tobacco Prevention Specialist Holly Mixon at hmixon@quitdoc.com.
