Jefferson City - Smoke Free?

I am not a cigarette smoker anymore, but I smoked for years longer than I wanted and longer than I should have. Now there is a push for Jefferson City to become smoke free. A group has formed, and now has launched a web page. Smoke Free JC. The group has a simple mission to promote a smokefree environment in all public buildings including restaurants and bars to protect individuals from exposure to secondhand smoke and reduce the harmful effects of tobacco use in the Jefferson City community.

Learn more about this effort online here.
