Vaping
Public Group active %sThis group is designed for our community to work better together as we attempt to understand the level of this issue for Garrett County students. The Center for Addiciton explains that the newest and most popular vaping product is the JUUL, which is a small, sleek device that resembles a computer USB flash drive. Its subtle design makes it easy to hide, which helps explain why it has become so popular among middle and high school students. It now accounts for about 72 percent of the market share of vaping products in the United States. It comes in several enticing flavors like crème brûlée, mango and fruit medley. Every JUUL product contains a high dose of nicotine, with one pod or flavor cartridge containing about the same amount of nicotine as a whole pack of cigarettes.

I am interested. I wonder if the schools can help by sharing what they know about the # of vaping devices found on school grounds each month?

Awesome post-@jenncor! Check out more resources from Truth here, https://www.thetruth.com/. @CharlesWilt had us pull some of these resources at the last Child and Adolescent Workgroup meeting. Now, that we’ve found free materials it’s time to get some folks engaged! Any ideas?!
