Do you know how protect your student against the harmful effects of vaping? What will you say when they claim that it is harmless?  Do you know the facts? Tobacco companies are targeting our youth and arming yourself and your student with the facts can help them stay away from this harmful and addictive product.

In fact, for many children, technology is one of the main ways they interact with and learn about the world. Thus, it is important that they have some guidance as they negotiate this increasingly technological world.
