Smoking prevention and cessation

The aims of the resource development and implementation working group are to:

identify current resources and programs and any gaps
improve the coordination and integration of programs statewide
improve the consistency and delivery of prevention messages and resources statewide
deliver best practice or innovative programs across the spectrum of prevention and improve access to services for all smokers
deliver targeted programs for at risk populations including Aboriginal communities, most disadvantaged groups and mental health services

It is proposed a small executive group be established with specialist sub groups to focus on:

Aboriginal communities and most disadvantaged groups
primary care and community organisations
primary and secondary prevention

The working group was formed after the Respiratory Health Network stakeholders symposium (PDF, 425KB) earlier this year.
