Wisconsin Retail Assessment Project

From 2017 to 2019, local tobacco free coalitions participated in a statewide assessment of the tobacco retail environment. The Milwaukee area piloted the project in 2016. This data collection highlights information on tobacco products, prices, placement, and promotion. Research links these marketing tactics to increased youth tobacco initiation and access, as well as decreases in quit attempts.
