About DC Tobacco Free Holy Grounds & Available Resources
DC Tobacco Free Holy Grounds (DCTFHG) is building a network of faith-based groups to change the way our community views tobacco use. DCTFHG provides resources, technical assistance and training for faith-based organizations to assist in reducing the burden of tobacco addiction in communities throughout the District of Columbia.
As faith based leaders, we can reach and give voice to diverse communities to prevent tobacco use and improve community health. Together, we will create a culture free from the tragedy of tobacco addiction.
