Smoking prevention and cessation support for populations in precarious socio-economic conditions
The aim of this pilot project is to support smoking prevention and cessation among socio-economically disadvantaged people in the Canton of Vaud.
Supported financially by the alcohol tax fund of the Directorate-General for Health of the Canton of Vaud, it was implemented by Unisanté, in collaboration with Caritas Vaud, between November 2021 and July 2023.
The objectives were to:
- Raise awareness among professionals, volunteers and users of this institution
- Provide free support to users who wish to stop or reduce their consumption
- Contribute to the denormalization of smoking within a social action institution
