Northwoods Tobacco-Free Coalition
Forest, Florence, Oneida, Lincoln, Price, and Vilas counties combined as one multi-jurisdictional coalition, called the Northwood’s Tobacco-Free Coalition (NWTFC).

- Develop a network of organizations to implement and coordinate ongoing tobacco reduction initiatives.
- Develop a strategic tobacco reduction plan for Florence, Forest, Lincoln, Oneida, Price, and Vilas counties.
