Strategies

Restrict alcohol consumption anywhere on a college or university campus or only in specific areas (e.g., residence halls)

Deliver tobacco cessation advice and motivational messages via text or video message

Purchase the land a home is on to lease to homeowners with low and middle incomes and require homeowners to sell the home back to the trust or to another resident with low income upon moving

Implement systems that help health professionals support patient tobacco cessation, often with referrals, self-help pamphlets, and pharmacotherapy

Support funds that help create or maintain affordable housing, subsidize rental housing, and assist homebuyers with low incomes and non-profit housing developers

Use websites, computer programs, and other electronic means to provide information, strategies, or behavioral support to tobacco users who want to quit, sometimes with counseling or pharmacotherapy

Provide funding via tax credits at the state and local level to support development and rehabilitation costs of low income rental housing

Use broad media-based efforts to educate large groups of current and potential tobacco users about the dangers of tobacco use

Establish programs that accept expired, unwanted, or unused medicines from designated users and dispose of them responsibly

Teach students personal and social skills to avoid tobacco use; led by teachers, health educators, or students in elementary schools, middle schools, or high schools
