Study finds inequities in neighborhood tobacco retail density
Study finds inequities in neighborhood tobacco retail density
A new paper in Health Education & Behavior by ASPiRE’s Amanda Kong and other members
of the UNC team discusses several implications for pro-equity tobacco control, focused on
the built environment. The paper updates the previous literature documenting national
inequities in tobacco retailer density. The authors also found there may be an inequitable
impact of retailer-specific policies on tobacco availability. See the paper.
