One by one, cities and counties in California have acted to remove flavored tobacco from their communities, and now California voters across the state have followed suit. The new California law ends the sale of flavored tobacco, including vapes and menthol cigarettes.* It’s a huge step in keeping kids from getting hooked on deadly tobacco products.
Even with new restrictions on flavored tobacco products, kids continue to have access to flavored single-use disposable vapes, pre-filled pod vapes and refillable vape pens.
Be on the lookout for warning signs that teens could be vaping, including personality shifts, depression, irritability and increased thirst. Look for opportunities to open a discussion with youth, ask open-ended questions and be ready with the facts and dangers of vaping.
