Why should our worksite complete the Smoke-Free Community Assessment Tool (SFCAT)?
Communities that support smoke-free environments through policies, policy enforcement, and education can have an impact on the health of their residents. Completing the SFCAT is an important step in improving a communitys health as it helps to identify current policies and activities that promote smoke-free environments, where services are available and what services are needed in the community to help people quit smoking, and target areas for positive change. The SFCAT can also serve as a central source of information of information about the smoke-free status of a community to be accessed by interested individuals in the community.
