American Heart Association - Virtual Workshop - Achieving Tobacco Free Schools in Iowa

Join the American Heart Association for a virtual discussion of the vaping epidemic and making the case for tobacco-free school districts. We’ll take an in depth look at trends in youth tobacco use, why kids are so vulnerable to addiction, share resources to help support students who need to quit, and share opportunities for district leaders to receive support in implementing a tobacco free school framework. Who should attend? School administrators, those implementing tobacco prevention programs, and those interested in youth tobacco prevention.
