The Communities of Color Network provides support and
technical assistance to African-American communities to ensure they are
well-informed about the dangers of tobacco, and understand how to protect
themselves from unhealthy exposure.
Its mission is to eliminate health inequalities caused by or
related to tobacco use among Louisiana communities of color by building
coalitions, increasing awareness of the dangers of tobacco, and reducing
tobacco consumption and secondhand smoke exposure.
