Camosun's Tobacco Use Reduction Task Force (affectionately referred to as the "TURTF") is a sub-committee of the college's Joint Occupational Safety & Health (JOSH) committee. Formed in the spring of 2009 to address the issues surrounding tobacco use at both Camosun campuses, the eight-member TURTF provides representation of the various groups within our college community.

With assistance from the BCHLA, TURTF has developed a Tobacco Reduction Strategy for the college which will be used to guide its tobacco reduction activities to the year 2013. This strategy focuses on three objectives:
- 笔谤别惫别苍迟颈辞苍:听To prevent students, faculty and staff from starting to smoke or use tobacco products.
- Protection:聽To protect students, faculty, staff and visitors from second-hand smoke while on campus grounds.
- 颁别蝉蝉补迟颈辞苍:听To promote and support quitting smoking among students, faculty and staff.
Online information and resources for quitting:
Funding to carry out the activities and initiatives that will help to realize these objectives was generously provided to Camosun through a grant from the BC Lung Association. Participation in CamFest, Smoke Outs, and Camosun's Quit to Win Contest are all activities that have been funded from this grant to raise awareness of the health risks associated with second-hand smoke and to promote the importance of smoking cessation to the college community.
The TURTF welcomes any questions, comments or suggestions you may have with regard to tobacco use at the college. Please email all correspondence to:聽turtf@camosun.ca.
