The Latino Coordinating Center (LCC) is excited to share that Vallarta Supermarkets has decided to stop of the sale of tobacco products in 34 of their 53 stores statewide including all stores in the Central Valley. This decision makes Vallarta Supermarkets the first and largest grocer in California to remove tobacco products from its shelves. Most importantly, Vallarta Supermarket’s trailblazing move reduces the availability and accessibility of tobacco products that may reduce the initiation of tobacco use among Latino youth. It may also encourage Latino adults who currently use tobacco to begin their journey towards quitting. The LCC commends Vallarta Supermarkets for taking a step towards influencing better health in the communities they serve.
Please see the press release for the LCC’s full statement on Vallarta Supermarket’s decision

The Latino Coordinating Center (LCC) is excited to announce the release of its Policy Platform which is intended to help advocates, policymakers, and other stakeholders advance the tobacco control priorities that will have the greatest positive impact in the Latino community. The Policy Platform focuses on reducing the burden of tobacco use and exposure among Latinos, taking into consideration the diversity within the community and centering its recommendations around health equity. The Policy Platform identifies four priorities considered most conducive to reducing tobacco use in this population and special considerations that need to be addressed to ensure that changes are equitable, inclusive of the Latino voice, and help to build capacity in the community.
