Massachusetts Tobacco Cessation and Prevention Program
The Massachusetts Tobacco Cessation and Prevention Program (MTCP) is an anti-tobacco program run by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health with the goal of decreasing tobacco prevalence in the state of Massachusetts. MTCP has four main components: preventing youth smoking, assisting current smokers with quitting, protecting against second hand smoke, and eliminating tobacco related disparities. Since the program began in, adult smoking rates have declined from 22.6% in 1993 to 16.1% in 2008, allowing Massachusetts the 4th lowest smoking rates in the country.〔Massachusetts Department of Public Health. 2009. Annual Report: Massachusetts Tobacco Cessation and Prevention Program. Boston: Massachusetts Department of Public Health〕
== History ==
Massachusetts Tobacco Cessation and Prevention Program (MTCP), previously known as the Massachusetts Tobacco Control Program, began in November 1992 after residents of Massachusetts voted to increase the excise tax on cigarettes (from $.26 to $.51 per pack)〔Koh, H K. 2002. Accomplishments of the Massachusetts Tobacco Control Program. Tobacco Control 11: 1-3.〕 in order to fund health related programs. The money raised from the excise tax went to support the Massachusetts Health Protection Fund and around 40% of that money went towards financing the MTPC. Within a year, the MTPC had created several major strategies to lower smoking rate. These initiative began with a major media campaign which used television, newspapers, and radio, as well as other types of media, to educated the citizens of Massachusetts about the negative side effects of smoking and to inform them of new programs being developed to lower smoking prevalence within the state.〔Connolly, Gregory and Robbins, Harriet. 1997. Massachusetts Tobacco Control Program. Boston: Massachusetts Department of Public Health〕
The MTPC is funded entirely through taxes on cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products. Between the years of 1995 and 1997, MTCP operated on an average yearly budget of $40 million.〔Connolly, Gregory and Robbins, Harriet. 1997. Massachusetts Tobacco Control Program. Boston: Massachusetts Department of Public Health〕 By 2009, MTCP had reduced its yearly budget to $12.2 million.〔Massachusetts Department of Public Health. 2009. Annual Report: Massachusetts Tobacco Cessation and Prevention Program. Boston: Massachusetts Department of Public Health.〕
