McMillen Health is featured on Wane 15 for #Anti-Vaping Campaign
McMillen Health was featured on Wane 15 promoting the kick-off of our #Anti-Vaping Campaign.
Kids are finding vapes, also known as e-cigarettes, on playgrounds, around their friends or lying around at home, according to McMillen Health.
In a meeting last year, educators asked the nonprofit to help them combat the growing trend away from cigarettes to vapes. The program “Cloud of Concern 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0” is aimed at 3rd to 5th graders who think vaping is cool when they see older kids puffing, blowing rings or producing clouds of smoke.
McMillen announced its anti-vaping campaign as part of Giving Tuesday to raise $20,000 to get their programs into school in the spring.
“Our hope is to continue to expand, reach schools that are out of state. We don’t want this to become normalized,” Marquez-Straessle said.
