Smoke-Free Multi-Unit Apartments

Are you being exposed to unwanted secondhand smoke?

Secondhand smoke contains more than 4,000 chemicals including: arsenic, carbon monoxide, lead, and formaldehyde.

Secondhand smoke causes approximately 62,000 non-smokers to die each year in the United States, including 3,000 deaths each year from lung cancer.

Walls don't stop secondhand smoke.  It can travel through cracks in the walls, under doors, through heating vents, and around plumbing.

STTAC is working with landloards, tenants and realtors to create smoke-free multi-unit apartment buildings.
