Most young smokers want to quit smoking, but are unable to succeed on their own. Not On Tobacco® (N-O-T) is a state-of-the-science, school-based program that provides assistance to teens who wish to quit smoking. The program covers the entire quitting process, including the prevention of relapses.
Teens Against Tobacco Use® (TATU) is a program that trains students ages 14-17 to mentor youngsters about the dangers of smoking. Research indicates that teens enjoy opportunities to positively influence their younger counterparts. Consequently, this mentoring also serves to reinforce their decisions to remain smoke-free. Evidence suggests that peer-led programs such as TATU are more effective in reducing tobacco. You must be trained by a certified TATU trainer in order to implement this program.
