The tobacco prevention and cessation department of the Arkansas Department of Health (ADH) is launching the Coral Reef Movement through their Be Well Arkansas program.
As the only event of its kind in the United States, the ADH staff consulted experts and crafted engaging materials designed for children aged 5-7 years old, aimed at promoting balance.
The goal is to provide educational information to children as early as possible in order to prevent them from using tobacco later in life.
According to data analysis, young people in the United States begin using electronic cigarettes as young as 7 years old.
According to analysis, in Arkansas, the percentage of high school students using e-cigarettes is twice that of smokers.
As the use of e-cigarettes becomes increasingly prevalent among young children, providing effective prevention information to young people in Arkansas has become crucial," states the press release.
The Coral Reef initiative is creating an animated video on the dangers of tobacco and nicotine, along with free printable materials.
