Penn State Extension of Westmoreland County is proud to announce that on February 4, 2015 Rostraver Township adopted a tobacco-free policy called Young Lungs at Play.

An evidence-based tobacco-free parks and playground initiative, Young Lungs at Play is supported through a grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Health.

YoungLungs
Accepting the 'Young Lungs at Play' signs are (l-r) Ray Iacoboni, Township Commissioner; Tamira Spedaliere, Township Planner; Tom Godzak, Road Supervisor and Chairman of Recreation; Gary Beck, Vice Chairman of the Board; and Pat Egros, Chairman of the Board.

The goal of this program is to eliminate children's exposure to secondhand smoke at local public parks and playgrounds. In addition to limiting exposure to the toxins in secondhand smoke, this program also has spin-off effects, including normalization of non-smoking behavior, decreased toxic litter, and cleaner outdoor air.

Rostraver Township will be added to the Pennsylvania Department of Health Honor Roll for its participation in this health initiative. 'Young Lungs at Play' signs will be posted in the following locations – Clair Manor; Van Meter; Fellsburg; Webster; Pricedale; and DiVirgilio – reminding the public that these are tobacco-free zones.
