Tobacco Prevention Coordinators
Tobacco Prevention Coordinators are South Dakota’s tobacco prevention experts. They provide specialized support to your organization’s or community’s work.
Contact A Regional Coordinator
If interested in support with any of these areas, reach out to your regional coordinator.
Coordinators are based in four regions across South Dakota. Locate your county on the Tobacco Control Program map. Then, find your coordinator’s contact information below.
Coordinators can assist in a variety of ways:
- Communicate State Plan goals and key data
- Provide technical assistance for grantees, coalitions and partners
- Present health education and promotion programs like training workshops, conferences and school or community presentations
- Share media materials that educate about the dangers of tobacco
- Provide support in adopting voluntary smoke- and tobacco-free policies at the local level (such as multi-unit housing, schools, parks, city buildings and grounds)
