National Through With Chew Week - February 18-24, 2024

National Through with Chew Week is a week-long tobacco-free event, dedicated to stopping the use of smokeless tobacco. We will be at Creekside High School and St. Augustine High School celebrating the week with our SWAT Clubs.

Tobacco Free St. Johns is a community-wide, locally organized group collectively working towards eliminating initiation and use of tobacco and alternative nicotine products among St. Johns County residents, supporting tobacco policy change and educating decision makers about the impact of tobacco use and nicotine addiction on the lives of St. Johns County residents and visitors.

Tobacco Free St. Johns is an action-oriented partnership generally meets every other month on the third Tuesday from 11:00am - 12:00pm. Membership is open to any St. Johns County citizen or organization that supports the goals of this partnership. To be included on the mailing list, please contact us!
