 Sharing our Knowledge |
 |
Since its inception in 1998, the American Legacy Foundation® has sought ways to address the health effects of tobacco use, especially among populations disproportionately affected by the toll of tobacco. The foundation will release a series of publications focusing on its major grant programs, highlighting replicable, sustainable projects that have been implemented with Legacy funds. The first report, entitled Listening to the Frontline in Cessation: Voices of Legacy Grantees, highlights the foundation's commitment to supporting cessation and illustrates how organizations funded by the foundation are helping to change the landscape of public health education through their cessation work.
Through its grant-making initiatives, the foundation has awarded funds to community-based organizations, public agencies, institutions of higher education, and tribes across the country. Disseminating the learnings that resulted from these grant efforts is one vehicle through which the foundation achieves its mission of building a world where young people reject tobacco and anyone can quit.
Limited printed copies of the Listening to the Frontline in Cessation: Voices of Legacy Grantees report are available by writing to dissemination@americanlegacy.org. The PDF of the publication is also available at www.americanlegacy.org/dissemination along with more information about the foundation grants program.
We are pleased to share with you this first publication in our series representing our commitment to dissemination.
