In 1997, our Congregation issued a Corporate Stance to protect our youth from the harmful affects of smoking.
Our position included joining INFACT, a non-partisan, national membership organization mobilizing people around the world in grassroots campaigns. We pledged to boycott at least two products from these companies during the duration of the international effort to force Phillip Norris and RJR Nabisco from advertising and promoting smoking among children and young people across the world.
