About TCCC
The Center focuses on
- Engaging California Tribes to assess their readiness to work in tobacco control
- Coordinating tobacco control learning, communication, and policy activities
- Building the capacity of emerging tribal leaders to champion tobacco education activities
We believe the success of the TCCC is dependent on the vibrant guidance and input of our Tribal Advisory Council (TAC)
