On this annual day of action, advocates will come together at events across the U.S. to stand up to Big Tobacco, expose the tricks they use to lure kids, and call for change.
It's easy to participate and make a difference. And it's not too late!
HOW TO GET INVOLVED
Host an event
Plan an activity to raise awareness, encourage youth to reject tobacco, and urge elected officials to take action to protect kids.
We're on the cusp of ending the sale of menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars – a monumental step to address health inequity and curtail the tobacco industry’s targeting of kids and Black Americans. Meanwhile, communities are moving to end the sale of flavored e-cigarettes that are fueling the youth nicotine addiction crisis. And the federal courts have forced tobacco companies to post signs in stores nationwide telling the truth about their deadly products.
We can’t let up now. Big Tobacco is fighting this progress while running PR campaigns claiming they’re the good guys. But it’s the same lie they’ve been telling for decades.
START TODAY
No event is too big or too small, and no one is too old or too young to participate!
