About Us
Our goal is to provide up-to-date information, resources, and technical assistance to both property owners and residents interested in smokefree housing in Missouri. The health of Missouri residents is important and eliminating exposure to secondhand smoke will greatly impact an individual’s health.
Smokefree Housing Missouri can assist renters and landlords with smoke-free living issues, which will allow them to have the best properties in their communities. Smokefree housing is healthier, reduces property damage and fire dangers, saves property owners and managers money, and saves lives.
Everyone is entitled to live in a healthy environment, especially at home. There is no safe level of secondhand smoke exposure. Secondhand smoke exposure causes serious health concerns for both children and adults. Secondhand smoke can drift into apartments through windows, doors, hallways, ventilation ducts, outlets, and fixtures.
The way to solve this problem is for property owners to implement a 100% smokefree policy. Read more about why it is important to go smokefree here
