Spring 2022 Online Tobacco Education Coordinators Meetings

Event description
Funded by BSAS
No

Tobacco Education Coordinator (TEC) meetings are held twice a year. The Spring 2022 series will be held online, on the Zoom platform. We have set up four meeting dates and times for you to choose from. Please register for the day and time that is most convenient for you - all four trainings are the same.

TEC meetings provide opportunities for training, discussion, and resource sharing. Each BSAS funded and licensed program must designate a staff member to be the Tobacco Education Coordinator (TEC). Meetings are designed to support TECs to assist their programs in integrating tobacco education, assessment, and treatment.

We are excited to note that this spring's agenda will include information on the following topics:

Best practices for creating a supportive atmosphere for addressing tobacco/nicotine in BSAS treatment programs
World No Tobacco Day, May 31: Environmental Impact of Tobacco
NEW BSAS/TAPE Project publication: “Tobacco’s Relationship to Other Substance Use: A Curriculum for Relapse Prevention Groups”
