Tobacco Cessation Resource Directory 2008- Teen

| Introduction |
Over
the past several years it has become apparent that Utah's
youth need specially designed services to help them quit
using tobacco. Prior to this time only adult-based programs
existed. While these programs were adequate for adults,
they were lacking important components for youth. In addition,
youth were resistant to attend classes or other programs
that were predominantly made up of adult participants.
The following information relates to youth-specific programs
that are available. They can play a vital role in helping
youth quit and stay quit.

support materials and referral to additional cessation
assistance when appropriate.
