Learn how the power of photographs can be used to change your community. The NYC Prevention Resource Center presents the Photovoice Interactive Seminar. During this seminar you will learn how images in your community can be transformed into powerful messages for community change.
 
This interactive seminar will provide you with the opportunity to learn about Photovoice and conduct your own Photovoice project. We will also allow time to plan your own approach and determine its use in your community.

To learn more, join us on February 28th where you will learn how the Photovoice tool can be used to change your community.

Tobacco Marketing Target Our Youth (Infographic)


Welcome Back Blog-readers. Check out this astonishing data, courtesy of NYC Coalition for a Smoke-Free City and noticed how the tobacco industry spends daily promoting the wrong message to today's youth encouraging cigarette smoking. 




The message is clear...our children have seen enough. Now our question to you is….have you had enough of the tobacco advertisements being marketed toward our youth? Please share this finding with everyone you know and let us know your thoughts...comments are always welcomed.
