The Southern Manitoba First Nations Commercial Tobacco Reduction Strategy (SMFNCTRS), is a program administered through Southeast Resource Development Council (SERDC) Health Services. This strategy is inclusive of 3 other Tribal Councils in the southern Manitoba region, including: Dakota Ojibway Tribal Council, Interlake Reserves Tribal Council, West Region Tribal Council, and 8 Independent First Nations. Resulting in a total of 36 First Nations communities.

The strategy focuses on six program pillars: Protection, Prevention, Education, Cessation, Reducing Access to Tobacco Products, and Data Collection.

SMFNCTRS’s aim is to reduce the number of commercial tobacco product users, within southern Manitoba. If you are a community member, health worker, band council member, or school employee, contact SMFNCTRS to collaborate on any possible activities, projects, and goals you wish to accomplish within your community.
