Community Supporters

Michigan lags far behind in having policies to protect our youth from the dangers of tobacco products. That’s why the Keep MI Kids Tobacco Free Alliance is advocating for the “Protect MI Kids” bill package, a comprehensive tobacco prevention package that would prioritize the health of our youth over the profits of the tobacco industry.

Support for the package continues to grow across the state, with local governments and organizations approving resolutions and issuing letters of support.
