Book Description

For those given the responsibility to develop and implement tobacco education and prevention programs, this book will fill a need: planning for the creation and implementation of innovative and effective tobacco education and prevention programs. This book contains original articles by leading experts in the field of tobacco education and prevention. They call upon their vast knowledge and personal experiences in setting forth the development of effective programs. They provide general theories of health education as well as practical tips for teaching their program goals and objectives. The articles cover a range of detailed tactics and strategies for specified target populations, such as youth and various ethnic groups. Significant differences exist in smoking patterns among different ethnic, cultural and demographic groups, and this suggests that unique health education strategies are needed for different target populations. This book will help health educators provide culturally competent interventions to the many diverse groups in modern society and is designed for practicing health educators, as well as students and professors, throughout the country. Health educators in the thousands of county Public Health Departments and community-based organizations nationally must now rise to the challenge of creating and implementing tobacco education programs in their diverse communities. The materials contained in this book will help them meet that challenge.
