PACT

Individual choices matter, but to***co prevention goes beyond the decisions one person makes.

Strong policies, prevention programs, to***co free environments and access to cessation resources can all help reduce to***co use and prevent young people from starting.

Through education and advocacy, PACT works to advance to***co control efforts that support healthier communities across Pennsylvania.

Peace starts with healthier communities.

Tobacco-free schools, parks, and public spaces help create environments where everyone can breathe easier, learn, grow, and thrive.

When we work together to promote healthy spaces, we help build stronger communities for everyone.

💚 Healthy spaces. 💚 Stronger communities. 💚 A brighter future.

This National IT Professionals Day, we're thinking about digital literacy.
