Smoke-Free Multi-Unit Housing
CLEAR THE AIR
Tobacco Free for a Healthy NJ (TFHNJ) works to increase opportunities for smoke-free living for all New Jersey residents by providing training and assistance to housing authorities, property managers, and landlords who want to transition their multi-unit housing complexes to smoke-free housing, reducing their costs and improving the health of their residents. We do this, in part, by:
- Distributing our Smoke-Free Multi-Unit Housing Toolkit for Landlords
- Providing technical assistance to housing authorities, landlords and property managers to facilitate the adoption of 100% smoke-free housing policies
- Promoting and highlighting smoke-free housing option through celebratory banners and TFHNJ’s Smoke-Free Housing Directory
