Please read:
During 2005 S.M.A.R.T. Moms providers are encouraged to help create positive support systems for pregnant smokers, as well as to emphasize the dangers of secondhand smoke.
Secondhand smoke contains a complex mixture of more than 4,000 chemicals, more than 50 of which are known or probable human cancer-causing agents (carcinogens) (Centers for Disease Control, 2004). These substances are potentially poisonous for tobacco users, smokers, and non-smokers - secondhand smoke hurts everybody!

The S.M.A.R.T. Moms project has recently been honored through two awards. The National “Dr. Audrey Manley” award, never before presented, and named for the former U.S. Surgeon General and National March of Dimes Board of Trustees member, was presented to the S.M.A.R.T. Moms project in October of 2005. This award recognizes an ‘exemplary program’ addressing the needs of mothers and babies. The Tennessee Chapter of the March of Dimes was awarded the “2004 Chapter of the Year Award” based on the S.M.A.R.T. Moms project which was highlighted in the award application. The Tennessee Chapter competed with multiple states nationwide for this prestigious award.
