Eagle County
5 -year Tobacco Prevention and Control Strategic Plan
2007-2012
Mission and Vision Statement
Eagle County Health and Human Services' mission is to build safe and healthy families
for people of all ages and support strong community connections that promote the
health and welfare of the people of Eagle County. Our goal is to improve the health of
our residents by preventing the initiation of tobacco use, promoting cessation, and
reducing exposure to secondhand smoke for youth and adults.
Demographics
Eagle County is a rural resort county located on the Western Slope. The estimated
2005 population is 47,530 with a projected increase of 17 percent in the next 5 years.
Over 8,400 children are school aged. This population is projected to increase over 26
percent in the next 5 years (Colorado Department of Local Affairs, State Demography
Office). Over 26 percent of the population is Hispanic, with schools reporting that 47
percent of their students are Hispanic (Colorado Department of Education, 2005).
Eagle County is marked by in -migration of middle-class, middle-aged retirees and low
income Hispanic working families. The county is comprised of two distinct
"communities". Eighty percent of Eagle County residents live in the Eagle River Valley,
and 20 percent live in the Roaring Fork Valley.
Community Health Indicators
The most recent tobacco data collected by Eagle River Youth Coalition in its 2005 Eagle
Cares Survey of 0'-12"' grade students indicates that 34% of Eagle County youth have
ever smoked cigarettes. This is less than the State rate of 49 percent. However,
smokeless tobacco use among Eagle County youth continues to be a concern. In 2005,
1& percent of male students reported using chewing tobacco in the past 30 days (Eagle
Cares Youth Survey, 2005 and Colorado Youth Risk Behavior Survey, 2005).

Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death in Colorado, resulting in
approximately 4,200 deaths each year (State Tobacco Education and Prevention
Partnership (STEPP), 2006). Over the past 4 decades, cigarette smoking has cased
deaths from cancer, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, and infant deaths
related to mothers smoking during pregnancy. More than 8.6 million people in the
United States have at least one serious illness caused by smoking (CDC, National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion).
The leading causes of death in Eagle County for 1995-2005 are listed below. Cancer
and heart disease are the number one and two leading causes, and cerebrovascular
disease is number four. The leading category of cancer deaths is lung cancer.

According to a leading cardiologist in Eagle County, Dr Larry Gaul, "Heart disease is
more prevalent in Eagle County than people think, and it affects more young people
than people think. There are a lot of closet smokers here and people in general don't
identify with their own risk factors."
Staff and Coalitions
Eagle County Health and Human Services has been designated by the Board of County
Commissioners as the lead organization for tobacco education and prevention.
Currently the Department provides preventative services to low-income people through
its Public Health division. Services include child and adult health screenings and
referral, immunizations, prenatal care, post partum home visits, case management for
children with special health care needs, disease investigation and WIC nutritional
services. In September 2006, family planning reproductive health screenings, treatment
3
for sexually transmitted diseases, and treatment of minor illness will also be offered for
low-income, youth, and the general population.
We are also made changes in key staff during 2006 in regards to tobacco control. We
have recently hired a Health Educator, Kristin Diedrich, who will devote half of her time
to tobacco control and prevention. Kristin is an RN that has worked with the county for
four years as a public health nurse. The first year will be a challenge for Kristin as she
establishes contacts and relationships in neighboring counties to learn and build on our
tobacco efforts.
The Eagle River Youth Coalition (ERYC), with its 22 youth provider members and an
additional 30 associates, will continue to provide special assistance to reaching youth in
tobacco prevention and control. The ERYC membership is made up of a variety of
youth serving and other nonprofit organizations, including CSU Extension, the school
district, law enforcement, mental health, medical health, Vail Valley Medical Center,
United Way, Vail Resorts, elected officials, researchers, youth, and parents. The
ERYC will support youth advocacy and empowerment activities, youth cessation efforts,
and advocate for compliance with the Tobacco -Free Schools Law.
The original tobacco prevention coalition met regularly in 2002 and 2003 with decreased
involvement in 2004 and 2005 due to drastic funding reduction and a shift in the focus
from services to coordination. A new coalition emerged in late 2005 with an emphasis
on reduction of secondhand smoke exposure and increasing cessation attempts. The
group is policy driven and was instrumental in implementing the 2006 Eagle County
smoke-free ordinance. The key influencers include:
• Eagle County Board of County Commissioners
• Avon Town Council
• Eagle River Youth Coalition; also an ADAD and TGYS grantee
• Get REAL youth
• Town of Avon Police Department
• Eagle County Sheriffs Department
• Eagle County Public Safety Council
• Eagle County Health and Human Services and Environmental Health
• Colorado West Regional Mental Health Centers
• Vail Resorts
• Vail Valley Medical Center
We will incorporate leadership by these community decision -makers in our 2006-2011
Eagle County tobacco prevention coalition.
Program Plan
The previous five years our strategic plan worked to meet three goals: (1) prevent
initiation among youth and promote cessation, (2) promote cessation among adults, (3)
reduce exposure to environmental tobacco smoke. Our progress towards meeting
these goals, achievements, and challenges are discussed below in addition to our plans
to enhance each of these areas in the next five years.
4
We plan to establish evaluation strategies and build on successes and challenges from
previous years. A large portion of our plan is central on utilizing state materials for
tobacco education, awareness and cessation quit kits. See attached Appendix A for 5
year goals, objectives, and strategies as well as evaluation methods for measuring
objectives.
Goal 1: Prevent initiation among youth and promote cessation
The ERYC currently provides tobacco control education, prevention and advocacy to
youth as well as youth empowerment activities. The ERYC collaborated with Eagle
County School District administrators to develop effective strategies to enforce the
Tobacco Free Schools Law. The ERYC continues to educate schools on the law and
maintain compliance. An instructor was trained in the NOT program, however, lack of
interest within the schools lead to the program not being implemented. This year The
ERYC is reestablishing key school contacts within each school in Eagle County to
promote tobacco prevention, education and cessation.
The ERYC also administered and analyzed the biannual Eagle Cares Youth Survey in
2001, 2003, and 2005. This survey gauges youth behaviors, including tobacco use. It
is an excellent tool that provides the schools, HHS, and the community with some
information on local youth behaviors and needs. The ERYC will continue to administer
this survey in years to come; the next one will be administered in 2007.
The Buddy Mentors Program, which is an ERYC member agency, received a grant to
implement a Get R!eal Coalition of youth from Eagle Valley High School in 2005. This
coalition is still active, and it was one of the key leadership components to get the Eagle
County Smoke Free ordinance passed this year. The Get Real Coalition members also
wrote and produced a tobacco free radio advertisement to promote the smoke free
ordinance in Eagle County. This year the Get Real Coalition will work with Buddy
Mentors and The ERYC to decide on its primary goals, which will include continued
work to enforce the Eagle County and the Colorado state smoke free ordinances and
other methods to empower youth to chose to be tobacco free.
We will continue to subcontract with ERYC to provide youth empowerment activities and
youth advocacy, increase youth access to cessation programs, and advocate for the
compliance of Tobacco Free Schools Law. Youth access to tobacco persists, so we will
continue to work with the police departments to enforce compliance of not selling
tobacco to minors. We would also like to develop an education program for tobacco
outlets to train their staff on the law and to ensure that staffs are asking for proper
identification prior to the sale of tobacco products.
In 2007-2008 we will reevaluate the feasibility of offering youth cessation programs in
schools. In the past this has not been feasible either due to lack of interest for
instructors to be trained, cessation programs competing with other after school
programs and the schools bigger concern of addressing youth's use of drugs and
alcohol versus tobacco. Depending on the outcome of this evaluation, we may
implement a youth cessation program in the following years (2008-2011).
5
In addition to possibly developing and implementing youth cessation programs, we
would like to target youth spit chewing both by preventing the initiation and cessation of
use. This is a new area to target among youth and adults and will require best practice
research to determine the most effective method for reaching spit chewers. We hope
that with the combination of the adult spit chewing cessation campaign, we can
strengthen our youth message as well.
The ERYC will continue to act as the county and the school's advocate for education
and enforcement of the Tobacco Free Schools Law and Smoke Free Colorado for both
public and private schools.
Goal 2: Promote cessation among adults
The past five years, cessation efforts were minimized due to a variety of reasons,
including funding reductions and public interest in a smoke free ordinance. The
QuitLine was not formally marketed to Eagle County residents. In the next five years
we will coordinate our cessation efforts with STEPP's strategic marketing plan and
reach target populations, including Latinos, pregnant women, and spit chewers as well
as the general public with a unified cessation and QuitLine message.
Our local cardiologist has indicated that in his experience Eagle County residents tend
not to identify with their risk factors. We hope that with the addition of Kristin, our Health
Educator, we can assist tobacco users in identifying that they use tobacco, which is the
first step to cessation. As with the youth, smokeless tobacco use cessation has not
received much attention locally, statewide or nationally. It is a difficult population to
target, but we plan to build and implement a smokeless tobacco cessation strategy in
the next five years.
In addition to the cessation efforts our Health Educator will provide the public, we would
also like to involve health care providers in promoting cessation and providing cessation
information to their patients that use tobacco. Health care providers have a unique
opportunity to capture the attention of each individual and can be a powerful resource in
the reduction of tobacco use.
Goal 3: Reduce exposure to secondhand smoke
Eagle County's biggest accomplishment in the past 5 years is the adoption of a smoke
free ordinance effective March 11, 2006. Smoking is not permitted in public places,
places of employment, in service lines, at recreational facilities, or at outdoor seating
areas or within a 25 foot perimeter of these places. The ordinance applies to
unincorporated Eagle County and the Town of Avon. The county anticipates an
improvement in indoor air quality, cardiac intervention rates, and possibly a long-term
decrease in tobacco use by adults and youth due to this ordinance.
However, as with any new ordinance, we will face obstacles to the public and business
owners adhering to the ordinance. We will continue to be an advocate for business to
enforce the smoke free ordinance. We will also educate the public about the ordinance
during peak visitor months.
rn
The majority of our efforts in the area of secondhand smoke were focused on the smoke
free ordinance. Moving forward, we would like to focus on reducing secondhand smoke
among children with parents or caregivers that use tobacco.
Goal 4: Collaboration
As we mentioned previously, a new coalition emerged in late 2005 with an emphasis on
reduction of secondhand smoke exposure and increasing cessation attempts. The
group is policy driven and was instrumental in implementing the 2006 Eagle County
smoke-free ordinance. The key influencers include:
• Eagle County Board of County Commissioners
• Avon Town Council
• Eagle River Youth Coalition; also an ADAD and TGYS grantee
• Get REAL youth
• Town of Avon Police Department
• Eagle County Sheriff's Department
• Eagle County Public Safety Council
• Eagle County Health and Human Services and Environmental Health
• Colorado West Regional Mental Health Centers
• Vail Resorts
• Vail Valley Medical Center
We will incorporate leadership by these community decision -makers in our 2006-2011
Eagle County tobacco prevention coalition. In addition, coalition members and
associates of The ERYC will promote our efforts and incorporate tobacco free efforts
when possible. The ERYC network has already received a variety of tobacco
prevention, education and cessation materials to hand out to youth and youth
caregivers. This will be part of an ongoing effort to provide the materials to the
community groups that reach our target populations. We want an ongoing coordinated
effort around this issue, so that we can measure and ensure that we are most effectively
reaching our target populations.
Conclusion
The 5 -year strategic plan will be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. Our
objectives will be evaluated regularly, with results guiding our plan updates. We will
continue to work towards meeting our goals by addressing the following areas of
concern:
1. Tobacco use by youth
2. Availability of tobacco prevention programs for youth
3. Tobacco use by adults
4. Accessibility of tobacco products to youth
5. Enforcement of tobacco use laws
6. Disparate population indicators: low levels of educational attainment, low socio-
economic status and Hispanics.
Eagle County Health and Human Services is excited to take on new challenges in
tobacco control and prevention. Our Health Educator is eager to bring the tobacco
efforts internally and looks forward to building relationships with other tobacco staff in
surrounding counties. Our coordinated effort with community partners and the tobacco
prevention coalition will result in a successful tobacco program in the next five years.
