Smoke-Free Campuses Symposium

City will host Smoke-Free Campuses Symposium in April
Universities, hospitals and workplaces across the country are adopting tobacco-free policies. A 100% tobacco-free policy bans smoking and the use of other tobacco products in both indoor and outdoor spaces and prohibits the sale of tobacco products.
On Wednesday, April 6th, the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, Drexel University and the Clean Air Council will host a free symposium entitled Smoke-Free Campuses.
The half-day symposium will bring together leaders, staff and students from Philadelphia universities, colleges and other large workplaces to discuss how to implement smoke-free policies on their campuses.
As part of the symposium, representatives from Widener University and City University of New York, which have both recently adopted comprehensive smoke-free policies, will share their successes and challenges and offer guidance to campus leaders in Philadelphia.
