Smoke-Free Housing in Multi-Unit Dwellings Initiative

British Columbians are protected from second-hand smoke in public places but many are still exposed to unwanted tobacco smoke entering their homes from neighbouring units. The Smoke-Free Housing in Multi-Unit Dwellings Initiative worked with housing providers to create more smoke-free living spaces. The Heart and Stroke Foundation implemented a smoke-free housing pilot project to provide technical support to interested housing providers, and conducted educational forums across BC.

For more information and resources for landlords, tenants and strata corporations, please visit the Smoke-Free Housing BC website.
