"Smoking Helps Me Fit In"

Tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of death and disease in our society.  Each year, more than 1,500 Idahoans die from smoking-related diseases, an average of four people per day.

While 21 percent of all Idaho adults smoke, 25 percent of young adults aged 18-24 smoke. Unless smoking rates decline, 32,000 current Idaho teenagers eventually will die from smoking.


Tobacco Prevention & Control
Do you want to quit smoking? Are you ready to quit smoking?
Health and Welfare developed rules for SB 1283, which governs indoor smoking in public places.
Works to create a state free from tobacco-related death and disease through education.
