Alberta homes declared smoke-free
CMAJ 1997;156:1691
Up to 25 000 Edmonton households could be declared smoke-free thanks to a community-based project sponsored by 21 organizations, including the Alberta Medical Association. Residents are challenged to register their home's smoke-free status in exchange for a resource kit and a chance to win a trip to Disneyland, the AMA's Alberta Doctors' Digest reports.
The "Clear the air: Make your home smoke-free" project relies on posters, media advertising and one-on-one reinforcement through physicians and other health professionals. If successful in Edmonton, the program may be expanded across the province.
