The STORE Campaign was conceptualized by the Point-of-Sale Practices
Workgroup convened by the California Department of Public Health, California Tobacco
Control Program (CDPH/CTCP) in January 2000. The STORE Campaign Team polished
the Workgroup's ideas and then expanded upon them as a result of input
from national expert advisors to create the cohesive campaign presented
here.
The STORE Campaign Team comprises staff from the American Lung
Association of California; the California Medical Association Foundation;
California State University, San Diego, Department of Psychology and Behavioral
Health Institute; the Public Health Institute; Rogers & Associates;
the Tobacco Education Clearinghouse of California; and CDPH/CTCP.
The Team is indebted to the Point-of-Sale Practices Workgroup members
who labored through numerous meetings and teleconferences; researched
issues; reviewed and pilot tested materials; and who shared educational,
training and public relations tools they developed. A special thanks to
Workgroup members Brian Peterson, Communications Assistance Project, American
Lung Association of California and Paul Bloom, Kenan-Flagler Business
School, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Brian was responsible
for naming the Campaign and Paul prepared a paper for the Workgroup, "Role
of slotting fees and trade promotions in shaping how tobacco is marketed
in retail stores," which was instrumental to our understanding
of the complex store environment.
The Team is also indebted to all the CDPH/CTCP contractors who blazed the
trail on tobacco sales and marketing issues in their communities. Thank
you for sharing your efforts through presentations, evaluation reports
and educational materials. Your hard work laid the foundation from which
The STORE Campaign was built.
