Dear Colleagues,

 

We are excited to announce the upcoming webinar: Earned Media That Works: New Guide for Quitlines, taking place on January 21 from 1:00–2:00 PM ET.

 

This session will introduce the new Earned Media Guide, created specifically for state, provincial, territorial, and local government professionals working in tobacco control and quitline programs. The guide provides practical strategies, templates, and examples to help programs strengthen their media presence, build sustainable communications systems, and effectively highlight the impact of quitline services.

 

During this webinar, you’ll learn how to:

  • Use the guide as a training and reference tool for communications staff to develop an earned media strategy.
  • Assess your current earned media capabilities and identify opportunities for growth.
  • Apply best practices to build consistent, strategic, and state-driven media efforts.
