Come and learn about vapour products.

You will gain useful knowledge and explore approaches to support health and well-being among young people.

Questions and concerns will be discussed, including:

  • What are vapour products? How do they work?
  • What’s in a “vape”? Are they safe?
  • Can they be used for quitting smoking? Do they increase smoking?
  • Are they legal for teens?

We’ll explore how and why vaping can be appealing for young people and learn effective ways to approach the issue with youth.

Handouts and additional resources will be provided.
