As part of our mission to provide life-enriching services, Mennonite Village is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of our residents, employees, and visitors.

On November 19, 2009, Great American Smokeout Day, we proudly joined with other health and residential care providers throughout the nation and created a tobacco-free workplace for the benefit of those who live at, work at, and visit our campus.

We are committed to improving the health of the workplace and those we serve each day. By making our Village tobacco-free and offering encouragement and support to those who enter tobacco cessation programs, we are addressing the number one health risk today.

Who is affected by the tobacco-free policy?

This policy is regularly enforced. Our standard procedures to monitor compliance and violations will be in effect within all facilities and across the campus. We expect all Mennonite Village employees and visitors to comply with the policy. Additionally, employees are encouraged to assist in maintaining a tobacco-free environment by helping to ensure everyone is aware of the policy.
