Surveillance
The goals of the Mississippi Comprehensive Tobacco Control Program are to reduce initiation of tobacco use among youth, promote tobacco cessation among youth and adults, eliminate exposure to secondhand smoke, and reduce disparities among specific populations. Our surveillance efforts are designed to measure and detail progress towards these goals using numerous primary and secondary data sources. These data sets include the Social Climate Survey of Tobacco Control, the Behavior Risk Factor Survey, the Tobacco Use Supplement, the Youth Tobacco Survey, the Youth Risk Behavior Survey, the Mississippi University Student Tobacco Survey, and others.
