About Breathing Space:

Community Partners for Smoke-free Homes combines catchy advertisements and community-based education to inform people about the dangers of second-hand smoke and encourage them to make their homes 100% smoke-free. This campaign, which began in the summer of 2000, is comprised of outdoor, radio and newspaper advertising. Community posters, second-hand smoke fact sheets and smoke-free home and car decals support the smoke-free home messages. This campaign represents the first time public health departments have combined their resources to reach the majority of the Ontario population with a consistent smoke-free homes message.
