Map Details - Maine Towns with Tobacco-Free Recreation Areas
Impact Statement
This map provides a visual of which Maine towns already have tobacco- free recreation area policies and which do not. To be recognized as a tobacco-free rec area, a town’s policy needs to meet the PTM requirements for a tobacco-free policy.
Purpose
This map was produced to show the number of policies already in place and to be used as a tool to help encourage towns without a policy to develop one. We also plan to update this map over time to show progress and increase in the towns with tobacco-free rec areas.
Software Used

Data Used
