LinkedInUCCE hosts 'Tobacco Jeopardy'
The public is invited to the UC Cooperative Extension office in Solano County tomorrow to take part in "Tobacco Jeopardy," a play on the TV game show that is intended to inform the public on the health effects of tobacco use, reported the Vacaville Reporter.
The event is sponsored by the Solano County Tobacco Prevention and Education Program.
"The goal of the training is to increase public awareness and inspire action to reduce tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke in Solano County," said Felicia Flores-Workman of TPEP. "Whatever the audience's level of knowledge about tobacco, they're bound to learn something new."
The free event runs from 10 a.m. to noon Tuesday, Feb. 25, at University of California Cooperative Extension, 501 Texas St., in Fairfield.
Smoking and exposure to tobacco smoke result in approximately 443,000 premature deaths in the U.S. annually, according to the CDC.
