Vaping Additional Information and Resources | 11/24/2019 |
Vaping Among Teens Vaping devices are popular among teens and are now the most commonly used form of nicotine among youth in the United States.

The easy availability of these devices, alluring advertisements, various e-liquid flavors, and the belief that they're safer than cigarettes have helped make them appealing to this age group. In addition, they are easy to hide from teachers and parents because they do not leave behind the stench of tobacco cigarettes, and are often disguised as flash drives.
