FCAAP E-Cigarette Taskforce Creates Youth Vaping Resources

Jan 13, 2025 | News

Although youth vaping has decreased in recent years, pediatricians are in a unique position to educate and support adolescents and caregivers about the dangers of vaping and cessation options. In an effort to support FCAAP members and pediatric providers throughout Florida, FCAAP E-Cigarette Taskforce collaborated with Tobacco Free Jacksonville to develop a Youth Vaping and Tobacco Use Toolkit and a Nicotine Replacement Therapy supplemental document.  The toolkit provides 10 hours of continuing education credit for providers. Providers can also access a webinar about Youth Tobacco Cessation. Access the toolkit and additional resources here.
