Vaping: An Unconventional Addiction (Room 201 A/B, WI Center)

The number of students vaping has skyrocketed and the traditional methods of combating nicotine use are not working. Scientific evidence is unclear on the long-term effects, e-cigarette companies promote candy-like flavors in colorful marketing campaigns, and usage is nearly undetectable. The presenters will cover the dangers of vaping and the importance of having adequate policies in place. They will offer a variety of educational strategies, including how schools can incorporate best practices around e-cigarette prevention into their curriculum for free.
