Working through ICAP, as a Community Partner with the Indiana Tobacco Prevention and Cessation (ITPC) organization, Smoke Free Henry County Coalition is passionate about smoke free air for the citizens of Henry County, Indiana. We believe the people of our county deserve the same healthy provisions that neighboring counties and states have afforded their citizens through the passage of smoke free air policies. Smoke Free Henry County also participates in numerous outreach programs to assist in educating our community regarding the negative effects of smoking and tobacco use.
