tobacco free
The Bureau of Tobacco Education and Prevention (BTEP) has
the goal of preventing tobacco use among Arizonans, especially children. Anyone
who wishes to quit using tobacco should have access to affordable,
state-of-the-art cessation services. All Arizonans should also be protected from
secondhand smoke. BTEP funds several programs and projects throughout the
state to encourage Arizona families to make healthy lifestyle choices.
