Abstract

Community-based partnerships have already played a substantial role in mitigating the impact of tobacco-associated cancers in our communities, specifically lung cancer, through programs assigned to reduce smoking. These initiatives have offered significant progress to date and offer, still, promise in the decades ahead as we work to eliminate not just smoking-related lung cancer but smoking-related illness, in general. Not surprisingly, legislation targeting tobacco product sales and marketing; work, home, and school-based partnerships; and local community initiatives have and will continue to play an important role in eliminating the burden of lung cancer in our communities.
