"The first national organization to focus on the need for a local clean indoor air policy was ANR, which is still the recognized leader in the field. ANR has supported local efforts in a number of ways: providing technical assistance, training, and strategic guidance to local coalitions ; keeping them informed of the latest policy trends and opposition tactics ; linking a coalition with local coalitions in other parts of the country that were encountering similar experiences ; developing 'best practices' guidelines ( ANR 2002 ) ; and disseminating model ordinances. ANR maintains a database of local ordinances and their provisions in order to track progress in eliminating unintended loopholes and addressing legal issues." ( U.S. Surgeon General's Report, The Health Consequences of Involuntary Exposure to Tobacco Smoke, Chapter 10, page 580, June 2006 ). Our sister organization, the American Nonsmokers' Rights Foundation ( ANR Foundation ), is a non-lobbying, educational nonprofit organization ( 501 ( c ), which creates comprehensive programs for youth of all ages on issues of smoking prevention, the benefits of smokefree air, and the right to breathe smokefree air. It provides educational resources for schools, health departments, medical organizations, and others interested in the issues surrounding smoking and secondhand smoke. Our goals are to raise a smokefree generation that rejects tobacco use and tobacco industry manipulation and interference tactics, and to educate the community about the health effects of secondhand smoke and the benefits of smokefree environments. We provide educational materials and training seminars for youth and adults to aid in the quest for a smokefree environment. The ANR Foundation is the only national repository of local tobacco-related ordinances and regulations in the United States. Our U.S. Tobacco Control Laws
