The American Lung Association® is working with youth to prevent them starting to smoke or to get help quitting if they do.

The American Lung Association® in Idaho works hard every day to reduce the number of youth in our state who smoke. We work to prevent disease and help people live happy, healthy lives.

Some programs that the American Lung Association® in Idaho offers are:

• T.A.T.U. Teens Against Tobacco Use – Students from area high schools use a peer-led model to teach elementary students to avoid tobacco. These informative and interactive presentations focus on the effects of tobacco, peer pressure and tobacco advertising, and the positive aspects of being tobacco free.
• N-O-T Not on Tobacco – A state of the art program specifically designed for teenagers who want to stop smoking. N-O-T helps teens stop smoking or reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke.
