WHAT WE’RE
WORKING ON
Next Era works on campaigns to promote a tobacco-free Louisiana. Our Current Campaign, Healthier Air for All is about protecting employees and their families from the harmful effects of secondhand smoke in the workplace.
Tobacco Prevention
and Control
The Tobacco Prevention and Control portfolio evaluates and implements tobacco control initiatives that can reduce and prevent tobacco use, as well as eliminate exposure to secondhand smoke and helps Louisianans lead healthier lives. By supporting tobacco-free and smoke-free policies at the organizational, municipal, parish, and state level. Part of these efforts include The Louisiana Campaign for Tobacco-Free Living (TFL), which has been able to make great strides in creating healthy workplaces for all workers across the state.
The Louisiana Campaign for Tobacco-Free Living
The Louisiana Campaign for Tobacco-Free Living (TFL) engages in local and statewide tobacco control policy efforts that focus on tobacco prevention and initiation among youth, eliminate exposure to secondhand smoke, promote cessation services, and identify and eliminate tobacco-related disparities. TFL is guided by best practices in tobacco control and envisions a healthier Louisiana by reducing the excessive burden of tobacco use on all Louisianans.
