Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids is a U.S.-based public health advocacy organization dedicated to reducing tobacco use and its health and economic harms, especially among children and adolescents, by promoting evidence-based policies and countering tobacco industry influence.
Advocates for higher tobacco taxes, comprehensive smoke-free laws, restrictions on tobacco advertising and marketing, limits on youth access, regulation of e-cigarettes and flavored products, strong FDA and regulatory oversight, funding for cessation and prevention programs, and measures to limit tobacco industry influence.
Primarily funded by philanthropic foundations, public health grants, organizational and individual donations, and project-specific grants from health-focused funders.
Works closely with national and state public health groups such as the American Cancer Society, American Heart Association, American Lung Association, state and local health departments, and international partners in tobacco control.
