A group of five teens with folders.

Empower youth to speak up about preventing or quitting commercial tobacco use. Clinicians, schools, youth organizations and young people themselves can help protect youth from starting nicotine products and promote quitting. As a team, advocates can separate fact from fiction and use evidence-based policies such as tobacco-free environments and limitations on youth access to tobacco products to create a healthier community together.
