Thanks to Racheal Surette and her partners, Yarmouth can take a deep, healthy breath

English | Français

Racheal Surette, Raymond Gaudet, and Paul Josey had a goal to reduce the use of tobacco products in their area. Now they?re enjoying some healthy successes. Yarmouth has a 100 per cent municipal smoke-free bylaw, and their local initiative KATS (Kids Against Tobacco Smoke) is keeping youth from taking up the habit.

Racheal Surette wants to make Nova Scotia a healthier place to live, and so does Health Promotion. That's why we're proud to support community partners like these.


Tobacco control is one of six key strategic areas Nova Scotia Health Promotion has identified and is addressing to make Nova Scotia healthier. Find out more about our other initiatives:
