Title: Tribal Sovereignty and e-Cigarette Companies: Emerging Concerns
Date: Friday, April 12, 2019
Time: 12 – 1 P.M. EDT
Presenters:
Coco Villaluz, Clearway Minnesota
Joshua Hudson, National Native Network
Rae O’Leary, Canli Coalition

Webinar Goal:
Provide more information and awareness to tribes, and to help connect tribes with appropriate resources and tools to aid in refusing any deal-making with e-cigarette companies.
The Problem:
e-Cigarette companies are targeting tribes to engage in a partnership with them, enticing tribes with incomplete and incorrect information that e-cigarettes are effective cessation devices, and with money to pay for e-cigarette program personnel and free or low cost devices.
