PROBLEM STATEMENT: In the state of Indiana, where tobacco use is higher than the national average, those living in multi-unit housing (MUH) are in a situation of vulnerability to the effects of tobacco use in such climates. PURPOSE: The purpose of the scholarly project was to determine whether providing education on the benefits of smoke-free housing in presentation format impacted willingness to implement smoke-free policies in multi-unit housing when presented to a group of Fort Wayne landlords and real estate investors. METHODS: The baseline
knowledge regarding concepts surrounding tobacco use, and the beliefs about benefits of smokefree policy implementation were assessed before and after an educational presentation and
supplementary materials were delivered. A convenience sample was chosen, and pre-posttest
utilized. RESULTS: There was a significant increase in willingness to implement smoke-free
policies among those who either owned or managed MUH. CONCLUSION: Live educational
presentation is an effective means by which to influence willingness of those in landlord or
manager positions in Northeast Indiana to implement smoke-free policies in MUH. The project
had potential to impact local, federal, and healthcare policies in regards to tobacco use. At
baseline, the monetary benefits of smoke-free policies among all members were generally
understood. In the future, in order to further educate and influence those in landlord, manager, or
policy-making roles, legal topics should be more specifically addressed if they are to be used as
evidence; legal issues were not largely found to be an influencing factor to a landlord or property
manager having smoke-free policies in MUH. Implications of the project are far-reaching, with
lessons that can be expanded to impact those in hospital administration and anesthesia leadership
settings.
