The Northeast Tobacco-Free Community Partnership (NETFCP) prioritizes racial justice and community health over tobacco and vaping industry profits. We work with local partners to fight the industry’s historic and unjust targeting of specific groups, including Black, LGBTQ+, and Latinx communities. The NETFCP collaborates with local partners to:

• Prevent youth from starting to use tobacco/nicotine*

• Protect everyone from secondhand smoke

• Promote free resources to help people quit

Funded by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health’s Tobacco Cessation and Prevention Program, the NETFCP shares resources, educates, and mobilizes the community in support of local tobacco policy in Northeast Massachusetts.

*When referencing tobacco/nicotine, we are referring to commercial tobacco (vapes, cigarettes, cigars, etc.) and not the sacred and traditional use of tobacco by some American Indian communities

Who We Collaborate With:

The NETFCP is a free resource for local coalitions, health and human service agencies, educational institutions, faith-based communities, social justice groups and organizations, multi-unit housing, municipalities, workplaces, and other community-serving organizations.

The NETFCP partners with and supports local chapters of The 84 Movement, a statewide movement of youth fighting tobacco in MA. For more information about how your local youth group can join The 84, visit: www.the84.org.
