John,

Meet Carly Caminiti.

A 2003 Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids Youth Advocate of the Year finalist, Carly leveraged her high school experience into a career advocating for tobacco prevention. She now works with Health Resources in Action, where she serves as Director for The 84, a statewide movement of youth fighting tobacco in Massachusetts. Carly believes that youth are a key voice in advocating for change.

“I knew that young people’s voices actually mattered to legislators.”

As part of our year-long 25th anniversary celebration, our Voices in the Fight profile series showcases the incredible power of advocates we've worked with over the years. Look out for a new profile every other Wednesday through May 2022.
