Dear Community Members,
Welcome to the June edition of the Live Life Well Project newsletter, proudly sponsored by the EC Reems Community Services Health and Wellness Department. This month, we continue our focus on addressing the negative impact of tobacco use, vaping, hookah, and marijuana within underrepresented communities.
Understanding the Impact
The harmful effects of tobacco and related substances disproportionately affect communities with limited access to healthcare and wellness resources. Our mission at the Live Life Well Project is to raise awareness and provide support for healthier lifestyle choices.
