·         Adult/Adolescent smoking cessation classes
    - Nicotine Replacement Therapy

·         On Applebee Pond puppet shows (Grades 1–3)

·         Educational programming

·         Tobacco merchant education

·         Enforcement/Tobacco Compliance Checks (sale of tobacco to youth)

·         Youth advocacy (BUSTED! Youth Movement)

·         Mini-grants sponsoring tobacco-free alternative activities and the BUSTED! Youth Movement
