Special Project Reports
- Helping Benefit Oregon Smokers Case Study In response to the passage of Senate Bill 734, which created a $500 minimum tobacco cessation benefit for all Oregon-based health plans, the OHSU Smoking Cessation Center convened a group of health plans and tobacco control advocates to develop a set of recommended cessation benefits. The case study report provides an overview of the Helping Benefit Oregon Smokers project, as well as the impact of Senate Bill 734 and cessation benefit recommendations on health plans and employers.
- 2010 Indoor Clean Air Act Compliance Study A new study indicates that hookah tobacco smoking among Oregon teen-agers is on the rise, due in part to a proliferation of hookah lounges that may be targeting young people with candy- and cocktail-flavored tobacco, online marketing and a party atmosphere.
- Oregon Tobacco Prevention and Education Program Biennial Report 2009 - 2011 This biennial report details the successes that Oregon communities, with support from TPEP, have experienced over the last year as they worked to eliminate secondhand smoke exposure, prevent youth tobacco use, identify and stop tobacco-related disparities, and help smokers quit .
- Advocacy, Education, Lobbying and Electioneering: Our Role in the Public Policy Change Process
HPCDP developed this eLearning module for its grantees - county and tribal health departments - to describe how public fund may and may not be used to support a public policy change process during a legislative session.

- Demographic Differences in Tobacco Use and Utilization of Cessation Resources Among Asian Oregonians (December, 2008) and Asian Oregonians' Attitudes Toward the Tobacco Quit Line (June, 2009)
The AFC and its API Health Network identified two gaps in current knowledge about tobacco use and cesation among APIs. 1) We do not have good estimates of tobacco use among various API ethnic subgroups. 2) We do not know why API Oregonians do not use Oregon's Tobacco Quit Line. In response to these gaps, the AFC worked with the TPEP at Oregon's Public Health Division (Department of Human Services [DHS]), Oregon's Tobacco Quit Line, and NPC Research to develop the current community-driven project. The goal was to collect information about tobacco use and utilization of cessation resources and services among Asian Oregonians, and to examine how demographics, perceptions of harm, cultural factors, and linguistic acculturation are related to tobacco use and cessation.
- Focus Group Report
In 2004 and 2005, TPEP contracted with Grove Insight, an opinion research and communication strategy firm, to hold 28 focus groups representing 14 distinct demographic groups. Each group delivered an abundance of information for utilization by tobacco prevention programs for education and advocacy in their community.
- Oregon Air Monitoring Project
The purpose of the Oregon Air Monitoring Project was to examine indoor air quality in a sample of hospitality venues in Oregon, and to assess the relation between indoor air pollution and the presence of on-premise smoking.
