Eliminating tobacco-related health disparities is a goal of Healthy People 2010 and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's tobacco control framework. A key component of this framework is forming partnerships with community organizations to develop and disseminate tobacco control messages. African American organizations have been conducting tobacco control efforts within their communities for at least 10 years. However, to date, these efforts have not been systematically documented.

520 $a Eliminating tobacco-related health disparities is a goal of Healthy People 2010 and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's tobacco control framework. A key component of this framework is forming partnerships with community organizations to develop and disseminate tobacco control messages. African American organizations have been conducting tobacco control efforts within their communities for at least 10 years. However, to date, these efforts have not been systematically documented.
520 $a A constructionist grounded theory study of African American tobacco control organizations was conducted. The study purpose was to understand the work of African American tobacco control organizations conducting tobacco control activities within the African American community. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 organizations throughout the United States.
520 $a Study findings revealed four processes of tobacco control work in African American communities: educating, collaborating, developing collateral materials, and strategizing for community involvement. Threaded throughout these processes is the activity of ensuring that all tobacco control activities are cultural competent. Participants provide varied definitions and examples of culturally competent tobacco control work. All four processes are used to integrate tobacco prevention and cessation efforts into other important health and social issues with higher priority within the African American community.
520 $a One of the challenges that hinder tobacco control work is differential funding where non-ethnic minority tobacco control organizations receive significantly more funding to achieve similar program objectives. Another challenge is balancing the requirements of funding agencies and the unique needs of the communities with limited resources in terms of personnel and volunteers within a limited timeline. Counteracting the tobacco industry's unlimited budget to market to African Americans and sponsor African American community-based organizations is another challenge for these organizations, most of which have limited resources. The final challenge of African American tobacco control organizations is dealing with the societal influences of institutional racism and marginalization that also hamper their work.
