Community Led Efforts: Current Trends of E-cigs/Vaping & Youth
Webinar presented by Nuestras Voces and ASPIRE Networks
E-cigarettes are very popular with young people and since 2014, these commercial tobacco products have been the most commonly used among youth. In 2020, about 1 in 5 high school students and 1 in 20 middle school students reported currently used e-cigarettes. Hispanic and Asian American youth are increasingly at risk for becoming users of electronic vapor products.
