Partnership with FACT

Fighting Against Corporate Tobacco


 

The youth of Community Action for Healthy Living have an amazing asset in the form of an advocacy group for youth called FACT (Fighting Against Corporate Tobacco). FACT is a statewide program targeting Big Tobacco companies like Phillip Morris, for targeting us as youth. Take a brief look at a cigarette ad, and you will see how easily youth are targeted by these various forms of advertisement. FACT is all about sticking it to the man, in this case, the big man called Big Tobacco.

 

In this group, the youth are given opportunities to participate in "FACTivisms" or activism activities at the local, statewide, even national level. Each year participants have the opportunity to attend the National Altria Shareholders Meeting in New Jersey if they hold a share, or protest outside of the shareholder's meeting. Countless opportunities are presented to these youth for meeting students like themselves from around the state.
