FACT
FACT is a youth driven movement in Wisconsin where teens work to spread the truth about tobacco by participating in team meetings, FACTivism activities, meetings with local and state leaders, and written media. SCA partners with Mauston High School’s FACT group to support their mission to spread the unfiltered truth about tobacco!  If you are between 7th and 12th grade and want to join, find out more at: https://factmovement.org/
Health Equity
Health equity means everyone has a fair opportunity to be as healthy as possible. This is an important part of our coalition as we strive to improve the health and well-being for all Wisconsinites. Big Tobacco continues to disproportionately impact specific populations including youth, those utilizing behavioral health services, women and pregnant people, and the American Indian/Alaskan Native population.
