Nueces County is predominately (62 percent) Hispanic with a small African-American
community (4.4 percent) relative to Texas as a whole. Although a majority of the population
speaks English, Spanish is often the language used in the home, and English skills are limited.1
Nueces County also experiences greater economic deprivation than the state or nation. In
2012, the most recent year for which data are available, Nueces County residents earned
approximately $3K less per capita than the national average. Our area also has a greater
percentage of families living in poverty. The percentage of children living in poverty has been
significantly higher than the state and nation and has been steadily increasing since at least

1997.2 During the 2013-2014 school year, 63.4 percent of Corpus Christi ISD students were
economically disadvantaged, and 50.5 percent were considered “at-risk.”3
Many of the Coalition’s first year initiatives have been concentrated in Corpus Christi. This is, in
part, because Corpus Christi has been amenable to Coalition goals, but also because efforts in
Corpus Christi are more likely to reach a larger audience. In addition, the Coalition has made
efforts to establish working relationships with schools, police departments, and other potential
community partners in outlying areas. Some municipalities (e.g., Driscoll, TX) have been eager
to work with the Coalition. We are hoping to increase our presence in both Corpus Christi and
the other rural areas within our region in the coming years.
Part II: Coalition Structure and Membership
The Council on Alcohol & Drug Abuse-Coastal Bend, founded in 1957, is a 501 (c)(3), non-profit
corporation serving 12 counties in South Texas. Its mission is to provide a continuum of care
for prevention, intervention, and treatment of alcoholism and other drug abuse for individuals,
families, and the community. It has a very prestigious, active Board of Directors which serves as
highly visible advocates for prevention, intervention and treatment of alcoholism and
substance abuse.4
The Youth Continuum of Care Coalition was established in 1999 and has a long history of
involving community leaders and key stakeholders in working on prevention efforts and
environmental change to produce positive outcomes. These stakeholders include youth,
parents, businesses, media, schools, youth-based organizations, civic groups, health care
providers, state and local government, and other substance abuse resources. This solid core
group with well-established members has been active in various Coalition projects and has
demonstrated a wealth of knowledge and skill development across multiple sectors. The YCCC
has been consistent in its messages to the community while utilizing other resources as
needed.5

The Tobacco Prevention and Control Coalition holds monthly meetings at the First United
Methodist Church in Corpus Christi, which provides free meeting space for our activities. Initial
meetings were very well attended, and representatives from many of our present and future
community partners were present. The first annual Coalition Membership Survey was sent out
to all Coalition members in June of 2014. While the response rate was less than ideal, the
responses reinforce the initial impression that our membership is very diverse. Women and
racial & ethnic minorities are well represented in the coalition. Members represent a variety of
agencies and organizations from local government, youth organizations, the health care field, K12 and higher education, the media, and substance prevention and treatment areas. Many of
our members serve on one or more of our standing committees.6 We have also established
numerous community partners within Nueces County.7

Part III: Tobacco Use and Consequences in Target Area
Based on the most recent Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System Survey [BRFSS]8 and U.S.
Census data, the overall smoking rate in 2012 for adults in Public Health Region 11, which
includes Nueces County, was 14.4 percent. This is lower than the smoking rate for the state of
Texas, which was 18.2 percent in 2012. The male smoking rate (19.7 percent) was higher than
the female smoking rate (9.4 percent) in this region. The Hispanic smoking rate (12.9 percent)
was lower than the white smoking rate (20.6 percent) in this region. We hope to update these
figures with the 2013 BRFSS data when they become available.9

Asthma: According to the 2012 BRFSS data, 4.2 percent of adults in Public Health Region 11
suffer from asthma. This is lower than the state asthma rate (6.8 percent). Men in this region
are more likely to have asthma than women (4.5 percent compared to 3.9 percent). Within this
region, asthma rates are higher for whites (7.7 percent) than for Hispanics (3.7 percent).
Cancer: According to the 2012 BRFSS data, 3.6 percent of adults in Public Health Region 11
suffer from cancer (other than skin cancer). This is lower than the state non-skin cancer rate
(5.2 percent). Women in this region are more likely to have cancer than men (3.9 percent
compared to 3.4 percent). Within this region, cancer rates are higher for whites (5.7 percent)
than for Hispanics (3.1 percent). According to the Texas Cancer Registry, the cancer rate in
Nueces County in 2011 (the most recent year for which data are available) was 381.2/100,000
population. It is estimated that there will be 1,627 new cases of cancer and 591 cancer related
deaths in Nueces County in 2014.
Heart Disease: According to the 2012 BRFSS data, 6.9 percent of adults in Public Health Region
11 have been diagnosed with heart disease. This is higher than the state heart disease rate (5.9
percent). Men in this region are more likely to have been diagnosed with heart disease than
women (9.4 percent compared to 4.5 percent). Within this region, heart disease rates are
higher for whites (9.9 percent) than for Hispanics (6.6 percent).
There are several data gaps worth noting. The BRFSS data regarding adult smoking rates, are
collected for Public Health Region 11. While Nueces County is located within this region, the
data represent smoking prevalence in a much larger geographical region. Our current efforts
do not reach all areas of Region 11, thus making it difficult to measure the effectiveness of our
efforts within the Coalition area.
In addition, we are unable to obtain information about the black smoking rate from the BRFSS
data. This region of Texas has a smaller black population than many other parts of the state,
making reliable estimates of behavior and health consequences in the black community
difficult.

YOUTH TOBACCO USE AND CONSEQUENCES
Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi participates in the Core Alcohol and Other Drug Survey.
This survey collects data from students in higher education about alcohol and drug use as well
as other high risk behaviors. The Core Survey was developed at Southern Illinois University and
is administered at many colleges and universities nationwide. The Core Institute maintains the
largest database on alcohol and other drug use at post-secondary educational institutions, thus
allowing for cross-campus comparisons.
While the Core Survey is primarily used to collect data on the prevalence of alcohol and illegal
drugs on college campuses, students are also asked about tobacco. The 2014 TAMUCC Core
Survey results indicate that TAMUCC students are equally as likely as college students across
the nation to have used tobacco in their lifetime. However, TAMUCC students are less likely to
report using tobacco within the past year, the past 30 days, or three or more times per week. 10

There are several data gaps worth noting. We do not currently have reliable information on the
rate of youth tobacco use in the area. Until this year, Nueces County schools did not participate
in the Texas Youth Tobacco Survey. Corpus Christi ISD participated this year, and we will report
the results of the survey when they become available. We are also hoping to encourage other
ISD’s to participate in future waves of the survey.
We are currently attempting to collect data from the Corpus Christi Police Department
regarding citations for underage tobacco possession. We will report these data if/when they
become available. At present, the police department is not required to report Class C
misdemeanors, thus making data collection more difficult.
While, at present, we have no direct means of measuring youth tobacco use within Nueces
County, several tertiary measures suggest that youth in Nueces County are disproportionately
involved in delinquent activities. Nueces County youth arrests for both property and violent
crimes are consistently higher than state and national averages.11 Perhaps more telling is that
youth in Nueces County are significantly more likely to be arrested for drug or alcohol
violations, as well as enter treatment for alcohol or drug use, than are youth state and nationwide.12
Part IV: Community and Coalition Efforts to Reduce Tobacco Use
Counter Marketing: The Coalition has used the resources provided by EnviroMedia to place 23
anti-tobacco billboards around Nueces County. We are also publishing the results of Store
Alerts on our website and social media sites.

Youth-Centered Advocacy and Events: We have also made a concerted effort to involve the
youth of Nueces County in anti-tobacco activities and events. Local youth attend our monthly
Coalition meetings. In addition, they participate in a student advisory board, Store Alert
activities, and monthly “Butt Hunts” at city parks. Eleven of the 12 volunteers at our first Butt
Hunt in April were local youth. We have 12 students signed up to attend the Say What!
Conference this summer, and plan to continue providing this opportunity to our youth in the
future. Finally, Corpus Christi ISD has been very open to allowing us into their schools. We
have been providing the PTNT curriculum to middle school students. Our evaluator is currently
in the process of analyzing the pre and post-tests that were administered with the PTNT
curriculum so that we can measure the impact of that program. We are hoping to build
working relationships with additional schools in Nueces County. For a comprehensive list of
schools in Nueces County, see Appendix A.

Retailer Compliance with Texas Tobacco Laws: Local law enforcement officers have attended
our Coalition meetings. Unfortunately, attempts to persuade law enforcement to participate in
10
funded anti-tobacco education and enforcement activities have been largely unsuccessful.
Because local police departments are not participating in these programs, we have little data
regarding retailer compliance with local tobacco laws. Recently, the Driscoll Police Department
agreed to participate in one of the programs. We are hoping that more police departments in
Nueces County will agree to participate in the near future. Our youth are also involved in the
Store Alert program.
Increase Cessation among Current Tobacco Users: Over the past several months, we have
made an effort to partner with local health care providers in order to promote tobacco
cessation in our community. Providers have attended our Coalition meetings. Thus far, we
have provided presentations to several local health care providers. We are also promoting use
of the Quitline and planning to start a support group for smokers.

Smoke Free Ordinances: Corpus Christi, the largest city in Nueces County, passed a smoking
ban that went into effect in 2009 and is designated 100 percent smoke free. Smoking is not
allowed in municipal buildings, restaurants or bars. The other cities within Nueces County have
less comprehensive smoking ordinances that only apply to municipal buildings and vehicles.

Other Smoke-Free Policies: Smoking or using tobacco products at school-related activities or
on school property are prohibited by Texas Education Code 38.006. This applies to K-12
educational institutions.
Our local universities also have smoke free policies. Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi has a
Tobacco, Smoke and E Vapor Free Environment policy that prohibits the use of tobacco
products, smoking, or use of e-cigarettes in University buildings, within 25 feet of doorways,
residence facilities, University vehicles, outdoor venues, outdoor athletic events, semi-enclosed
walkways, gazebos, and free speech areas. The University’s literature maintains that the
campus is 100 percent smoke free except in designated outdoor smoking areas.
The Del Mar College smoking policy prohibits smoking tobacco in non-designated smoking
areas. Smoking and use of other tobacco products is prohibited within College facilities or in
College-owned vehicles.
Texas A&M University-Kingsville has a Smoke-Free Environment policy that prohibits smoking in
University-owned buildings, athletic stadium seating areas, retail service halls and vehicles
owned or leased by the University. Smoking is also prohibited within 20 feet of doors or
windows, within 20 feet of seating at athletic events. Smoking is allowed in the private
12
residential space of selected residential halls and apartments but prohibited in common areas
such as lobbies, lounges, waiting areas, stairwells, and restrooms.
Part V: Concluding Remarks
Although Corpus Christi (the largest city in Nueces County) has anti-smoking and anti-tobacco
product ordinances in place for municipal buildings, and restaurants and bars, there is a lack of
ordinances in other public locations such as parks and event centers which creates a danger for
youth and those with preexisting respiratory conditions. The move to get parks smoke free is one
that is being undertaken at the moment, using eye opening events such as “Butt Hunts.” All other
outlying communities lack ordinances beyond smoking in municipal buildings, which poses a risk for
the residents. Currently, no data are available to show how the lack of ordinances is ultimately
affecting the residents of these communities. As of July, 2014, our Coalition consists primarily of
organizations and individuals from Corpus Christi where most of our efforts have been
concentrated, however, these organizations will be partnering to utilize grassroots strategies to
help bring the risks and dangers into focus. The TPCC will also expand its programming to educate
the outlying communities via PTNT Curriculum.
