"Project Smoke Free" is a joint effort of the Durham Region Department of Health Services and the Durham Region Lung Association and will be held at Palmerston Avenue Public School and the Whitby Senior Publie School. The program will also be held at the Cartwright Publie School in Blackstock. According to Elizabeth Schaefer, Durham's- chief public health nurse: "The ultimate goal of the program is to provide health education to all public school children in the region on the risks associated with smoking."' Two public health nurses will be working with teachers in providing students with information at these selected schools. At the same time, an effort will be made to raise com- munity awareness of the smoking problem and of this particular program. The students will be survey as to theji existing level of knowledge, behaviour, beliefs and attitudes before the class and at the end of the school year. The pilot project will end next August and if believed successful, it will be introduced on a region-wide basis.
