More than 80 percent of current smokers start in their teens, making the tobacco epidemic a youth epidemic. The first Surgeon General’s report on smoking nearly 50 years ago set the foundation for the tobacco control movement which continues to evolve. For more than a decade, young leaders around the country have emerged to tackle the tobacco epidemic head on to prevent even more youth from ever starting.

Join Legacy and the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids for a dynamic youth-led discussion addressing the significance of the youth activism movement in tobacco control, how it has evolved and the future of this effort for years to come.
