Lesson Plan

Vape vs Reality Lesson Plan

Students of Color in urban communities will identify and articulate at least three health risks of vaping, recognize how the industry targets their cultural and social networks, debunk culturally rooted myths, and develop refusal strategies that honor their identities and community values.

Vape companies disproportionately market flavored products and ads in Black, Latinx, and Indigenous neighborhoods—this culturally responsive lesson empowers students to protect their health and community.
