The Chippewa Cree Tribe of Montana has developed a new campaign aimed at curbing tobacco use while emphasizing its sacred uses.
The "Keeping Tobacco Sacred" campaign will be unveiled at the 14th annual Walk for Sobriety on Friday. The tribe wants to discourage people from smoking cigarettes or chewing tobacco.
Montana's tribes received grants to develop culturally-appropriate tobacco cessation programs.
