Tobacco-Free Schools
Many schools and districts are sending out regular newsletters to parents and families during COVID-19. Contact your education partners to find out if they need content for these communications, especially content that touches on social-emotional supports for students and those who vape, smoke, or chew tobacco. If so, you can send them this language, which they can adapt or copy and paste into their newsletters.
