An innovative strategy for institutionalizing a community-based tobacco program.
When Proposition 99 tobacco control program funding to state health departments was reduced in 1993, Contra Costa County developed a strategy to institutionalize its tobacco control programs in other organizations. This effort identified seven funding priorities and three stable, experienced community organizations "adopted" these priorities.
