Tobacco-Free Youth Recreation
Tobacco-Free Parks:
For a Healthy Community
Tobacco-Free Youth Recreation (TFYR) assists recreational organizations and communities in their efforts to create a tobacco-free environment where they can promote and model tobacco-free lifestyles.
This is accomplished by helping these groups partner with youth and adult community members to implement a recreation-based tobacco prevention strategy.
A primary focus of TFYR's work is to assist Minnesota communities in adopting tobacco-free policies for their parks, playgrounds, athletic fields, and other outdoor recreational facilities.
TFYR focuses on the Twin Cities metro area with grant funding from the Minnesota Department of Health.
