Message from the President

Welcome to our website. We have been striving for smokefree workplaces, public places, and schools, as well as children's home environments, since 1974. We are slowly winning our right to smokefree air.

But we need all the help we can get to change the image of secondhand smoke from acceptable and only a minor nuisance, to the danger it really is. Secondhand smoke kills more than 65,000 Americans every year. Even low exposures can trigger heart attacks.

The more members we have, the more influential we can be. Therefore, I hope that, after viewing this website, you will join us and help us reach our goals.

To become a member, please send a tax-deductible contribution along with your name and address to 7 Cedar St., Suite A, Summit, NJ 07901.

Dr. Douglas Lee Chester, President
