Advocacy in Action: A Conversation with Yolonda C. Richardson

With a relentless tobacco industry stopping at nothing to hook a new generation, mounting pressures from political shifts and disinvestments in global financing, it’s easy for advocates to feel discouraged. But no matter the public health challenge—noncommunicable diseases, air pollution or injuries—now is the time for advocates to rise to the challenge and adapt to a new era of public health.
