JUUL<\/strong> and e-cigarette<\/strong> use among children and teens has become an epidemic both in our community and nationwide. The e-cigarette JUUL is said to be a smoking \u201ccessation\u201d device for adults, but its growing popularity among children and teenagers, and the company\u2019s marketing tactics and fruity flavors targeted to younger users, has made it a smoking \u201cinitiation\u201d device for children and teens. Tobacco use among children has skyrocketed, especially in our community. Last school year (the year JUUL was created) high school tobacco referrals in our community have increased by over 5x and have reached an all-time high.<\/p>\n
