ACT is designed to increase the ability of community members to take action against tobacco in their own communities. The initiative recognizes that reducing tobacco use requires a shift in community attitudes and norms about smoking, and that this type of significant change can only take place when local community people are committed to investing themselves in the effort. ACT also takes advantage of the current high degree of momentum in Nova Scotia for anti-tobacco activities.

Please note that Karen Purcell has left the position of ACT Administrator. Please direct all questions/requests to Holly MacIntyre until further notice.
