Tobacco Free Partnership of Eau Claire

The Tobacco-Free Partnership of Eau Claire County is a coalition of local health care professionals, educators, community agency representatives, businesses, public officials and concerned citizens.

Our mission is to promote healthy, tobacco-free living!

Priority Areas:

  • Smoke-Free Air - promoting policies that protect people from exposure to environmental tobacco smoke.
  • Treating Tobacco Dependence - promoting proven approaches and resources to help tobacco users quit.
  • Preventing Tobacco Use by Kids - promoting youth education and activism and restricting access to tobacco products by minors.

We Provide:

  • Assistance to employers and municipalities who want to implement smoke-free policies.
  • Educational materials and speakers on tobacco-related topics.
  • Information about local resources for people who want to quit.
  • Opportunities for young people to become peer educators and tobacco-free activists in the B-Free Coalition and FACT Group (fighting Against Corporate Tobacco).
  • Access to a network of community advocates for tobacco prevention and control.

We welcome new members! For more information, please contact Julie Marlette, Coordinator, at (715) 839-4718 or e-mail tobaccofree@co.eau-claire.wi.us
