Tobacco Retailer Inspection Program (TRIP)

The Indiana Tobacco Retailer Inspection Program (TRIP) is a state government program designed to systematically monitor the effectiveness of tobacco retail compliance. Indiana's tobacco retailer compliance laws restrict the sales and distribution of tobacco products to minors...   Full Story »

TRIP conducts random unannounced inspections of retailers by a team consisting of a police officer, youth, and adult monitor. The youth attempts to purchase tobacco from the retail clerks under unobtrusive observation by a police officer. In the event of an illegal sale, both the retail establishment and the individual clerk who sells tobacco to minors are fined as a result of this enforcement effort.

The Indiana Prevention Resource Center (IPRC) at Indiana University provides logistical and administrative support services and program evaluation services to the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission (ATC), to assist with administration of the TRIP program. To learn more please visit the TRIP website.
