Why This Website Matters

Why We Created This Website

This website supports America On Track's tobacco prevention efforts by educating residents, parents, youth, community leaders, and decision-makers about Tobacco Retail Licensing and its role in reducing youth access to tobacco and vaping products. By providing clear information, local data, and opportunities for community engagement, this site is designed to help Orange County communities better understand how strong retail policies can protect young people, promote healthier neighborhoods, and prevent nicotine addiction before it starts.
