SUMMARY:Webinar: Secondhand and Thirdhand Smoke Impact on the Latino Community & Smoke-Free Multi-Unit Housing
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Yaneth Rodriguez\, MPH – University of Southern California Tobacco Center for Regulatory Sciences\, Community Data Collection Manager\nSecondhand and thirdhand smoke are a significant public health concern and driver of smoke-free policies. Secondhand smoke is inhaled involuntarily from tobacco being smoked by others and increases the risk for many diseases. When nonsmokers are exposed to tobacco smoke\, their risk of lung cancer is increased by about 20%. Thirdhand smoke leaves chemical residue on surfaces where smoking has occurred and can continue long after the smoke has left the environment. This presentation will review the impact of secondhand and thirdhand smoke can have on the Latino community. This presentation will also explain how smoke-free multi-unit housing policies can protect tenants. \nEarn 1.0 CME

SUMMARY:Webinar: Unsafe in any Form: The Health Risks of Tobacco Products other than Cigarettes
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Keith Walker\, LCSW\, TTS-C – MaineHealth Center for Tobacco Independence Training and Education Program\nThe types of tobacco products available have proliferated in recent years\, creating a shifting and sometimes confusing landscape. This webinar will provide an overview of some of the more recent non-cigarette tobacco products and will address some of the myths and misinformation about them. This presentation will discuss health risks associated with different types of tobacco products\, including combustibles\, smokeless tobacco\, electronic nicotine delivery systems\, and heated-not-burned products. Health risks specific to youth and young adults will be highlighted\, since they are the targeted population and the primary users of most of these newer products. Treatment implications for users of these products will be touched upon\, as well as some of the regulatory measures that have been enacted and proposed regulations for future consideration.
