Our Mission in Tobacco Control

Islands Public Health is dedicated to reducing tobacco use and its harmful effects on the residents of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Our comprehensive tobacco control initiatives focus on prevention, cessation, and community education to create a healthier, smoke-free environment for all.
Through collaborative efforts with local governments, healthcare providers, and community organizations, we strive to implement effective strategies that address the unique challenges faced by our island communities. Our goal is to empower individuals with the knowledge and resources they need to make informed decisions about tobacco use and to support those who wish to quit.
