Dear Applicant:

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Fresno County (B&GCFC) recruits volunteers in all 58 California counties to participate in undercover tobacco enforcement operations in conjunction with the:

California Department of Public Health
Food and Drug Branch (FDB)
Tobacco Enforcement Operations

The FDB specifically enforces the illegal sales of tobacco. By law, the FDB can use decoys to verify if stores are selling to underage people. Participants selected to work with FDB investigators will attempt to purchase tobacco products at tobacco retail outlets under FDB supervision.

Valid identification (California ID or Driver’s License) of the decoy will be shown only if requested by retailers. Decoys are trained and instructed to avoid confrontation. If a sale is made to a decoy, the FDB has the authority to fine the store owner. The FDB investigator will notify the store owner of the illegal sale days after the decoy’s purchase, the decoy is never onsite.

All enrolled decoys must be available for up to five years from the date of the decoy’s last compliance check to provide a narrative report, declaration, and/or give oral testimony in a hearing should one of their compliance checks go to court or administrative hearing.

Thank you for reviewing and considering participation in our program.
