VAPING
Recently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration declared teen vaping an “epidemic” in America. Vaping is the act of inhaling aerosol and vapor from a liquid that contain drugs like nicotine and THC through an e-cigarette. Through the use of flavors, e-cigarette use is made more appealing to young people. The Gateway Foundation has created resources for parents to learn more about vaping.
