When it comes to advancing a tobacco-free culture in behavioral health, framing matters; the message can enhance or undermine our impact. In planning for change, it’s important to plan the way we talk about the work. Fortunately, there’s evidence - both empirical data and proven, practical approaches - that can guide would-be champions for tobacco-free protections. This session will share recommendations from the Tobacco Disparities Framing Project and offer examples of how to apply these concepts to good effect.
