Rescue Agency

Hello Clear the Vapor Conference,

With decades of experience, Rescue | The Behavior Change Agency uses evidence-based communications strategies to change knowledge and social norms around the usage of e-cigs and vapes for teens from all communities.

The vaping epidemic is threatening to undo two decades of success in tobacco control with studies showing 20% to 30% of high school students currently vaping. While the full extent of health risks are still unknown, we are already seeing rare lung illnesses and deaths rise among young vapers. Without swift, evidence-based intervention, millions of teens will become addicted to nicotine, many of which may escalate to traditional cigarettes as they get older.

I hope you will find the Teen Vaping Prevention Resource Library filled with presentations, case studies, video examples and other free tools helpful in planning for your communications strategy. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any additional questions.

C.J. Stermer,
Senior Director of Education
