Counter Tools hosted its 10th quarterly webinar in its “Healthy POS Webinar Series” on February 26, 2020 from 1:00-2:00pm EST. 

 

Massachusetts has set an example for implementing restrictions on flavored tobacco product sales at the state and local level that aim to minimize the visibility and accessibility of these products and to ultimately reduce youth use. In this webinar, guest speakers Lindsay Kephart and Melody Kingsley provide an overview of Massachusetts’s statewide and local-level flavor policies, policy evaluation results based on published journal articles, and some key takeaways from their state’s experience.
