Imagine your team conducted a community needs assessment and determined that there is a need to develop a tobacco control program in your community. Your team has decided that the best way to begin is to develop a coalition, and you must present this idea to your community leaders.
Review the Best Practices For Comprehensive Tobacco Control Programs: User Guide, produced by the Center for Tobacco Policy Research at the George Warren Brown School of Social Work at Washington University in St. Louis, to assist in developing a plan to organize and implement the Tobacco Program Coalition.
