There is a definite need for tabacco control activities in the Perth Amboy area. As a non-profit social service agency serving the pre-dominantly hispanic Middlesex County Community, we will be able to assist the program to disseminate information showing the hazard associated with smoking. The hispanic commu- nity will greatly benefit from such information; there are many hispanics who suffer from lung and other respiratory problems associated with tabacco. This is an important project which will require the involvement of all State agencies as well as-private and public establishments. We wish you success in attaining your goal.
