I have joined the NYC Coalition for a Smoke-Free City and I am now the Queens Borough Coordinator for the Queens Smoke-Free Partnership. Our goal is to make Queens smoke-free by creating more smoke free public spaces, apartments and homes and stop tobacco companies from targeting our youth to smoking. Attached, please find our fact sheet on our goals for Queens.
We will organizing a citywide youth rally next Tuesday, May 31st for World No Tobacco day at Union Square. Attached, please find the flyers for the event. We are looking for middle and high school students to attend the rally and we will provide metrocards for the kids. Please send this information out to your contacts. Thank you very much for all your help on this event and I look forward to working with you to make Queens Smoke-Free.
