21 Health Care Reform Legislation  Many Players: check your state delegation!!!!!  Many Options (Single payer, multiple payers,  Will Cessation be covered?  What is being planned?  Will Community Health Centers Expand? HRSA work with them?  Are you one of the players?

22 Increased taxes at the State Level Budget Cuts  What are the implications?  Who will support the Quitlines?  Have you built allies who will advocate for you and the tobacco programs?  Physician Associations AMA, etc.?  What are your links to community groups and minorities?

23 4- Prongs Policy Change Model 1.Need to advocate within every community where tobacco is not a high priority 2.Within the mainstream tobacco control movement where minorities are not a high priority (Parity Kit ) 3.With policymakers where neither tobacco nor emerging communities is a priority 4.Against the tobacco industry where priority populations are one of the highest priorities

24 Community Stages of Readiness Model

25 Why Parity? Parity: “being equal in the process, as well as the outcomes attained in tobacco control.” Concept based on inequities in history of tobacco control and institutional inequities Parity requires systems changes within each institution Rod Lew, APPEAL, www:appealforcommunities.org

26 Train Advocacy Skills = Not lobbying  Train at state level with all communities to build Advocates  Minority/Priority Communities  Faith Communities  Youth Advocates  Business groups  Local officials who have seen the benefits  Present a benefit/cost analysis  Put the HUMAN FACE on the EX Smoker!
