I think that vaping used to be much more popular and a bigger issues previous to the news stories a few years ago about the negative effects and the mystery lung disease kids were getting. Now I think much fewer of my peers, at least in my school, vape.

# data[].attributes.body
I think they may sign up for this class is they are looking to get help, otherwise they might need more of an incentive to do it.

# data[].attributes.body
I would reach out through the schools and maybe the substance abuse counselors at the local high schools. These specific counselors may be able to personally invite students to this invite. You could also reach out to certain club that help prevent drug abuse to maybe help get the word out.

I don't think vaping is a huge issue at my school compared to the way it used to be. Abusing other drugs is more common in our school district.

# data[].attributes.body
I think vaping used to be worse, and is not as bad now especially because of all the awareness that has been raised about the negative impacts. If anyone really vapes, it is more so marijuana than juuling.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think people will sign up especially if they are addicts unless they really want help. People our age wouldn't join this even if they wanted help most likely would be peer pressured into not taking it (it would HAVE to be anonymous).

# data[].attributes.body
I think people should not get into trouble at school for vaping. While it is obviously bad thing to be doing, it is more important to rehabilitate the person than to punish them. If it is not something that is as harshly enforced to not do, it may also take the rush out of it for some other people. I think there are circumstances where punishment such as suspension is warranted, but schools need to be more supportive and more people will come forward.

# data[].attributes.body
Vaping is undeniably still an issue at my school; however, the school no longer focuses on it. While they had heavy campaigns against it a few years ago, it is no longer mentioned. I do not know which brands are popular.

# data[].attributes.body
While I think they should get the help they need (and this would be a great opportunity to do so), I would be surprised if they would willingly admit that they need such help.

# data[].attributes.body
We could make a PJLC Instagram account!!

# data[].attributes.body
I think work like this will help destigmatize seeking such help!!

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Vaping is still a really big issue but is pushed aside to focus on different issues such as alcohol abuse and marijuana use. I do believe less people are vaping because of how much talk there was in the past about how bad it is for your health but still there is enough of a population who still vape to talk about it in school.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think people addicted to vaping will sign up for this class because if you vape, you most likely know what it does to your health and choose to ignore it. Also, many will convince themselves they aren't addicted and they can quit when they want therefore they won't see the need to go to a class. It takes a big person to get help and I don't think many people would.

# data[].attributes.body
I think something to reach students is to advertise this class around specific schools. For example, have guidance counselors speak to kids about this or have certain teachers talk about this in the beginning of their classes.

# data[].attributes.body
I think vaping is a significant issue in my school and is consistently increasing in popularity.  I don't often see posters or flyers talking about vaping as often as I did in previous years, and I think it is a topic that needs to be re-visited.

# data[].attributes.body
I think students who are addicted to vaping would not be inclined to join the class unless they are searching for ways to quit. If they are addicted and have no intention of stopping then joining the class is unlikely.

# data[].attributes.body
We can reach students through either a PJLC instagram or twitter account and we can talk to schools and ask if they are willing to post signs about it.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think Vaping is a major issue at my school, but I think that it still exists.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that some people may be scared or embarrassed to sign up even if they know it is for their best interest. Possibly having something anonymous could help.

# data[].attributes.body
I think advertising this event on social media could help. Also having the schools aware of the event so that they can advertise it would be helpful

# data[].attributes.body
I think it is really important to give students the opportunity to get help

# data[].attributes.body
I personally have little to no little experience with this. I know that there are people at my school who vape/juul, but I wouldn't be able to identify them in even the slightest way. Because of this I wouldn't be able to tell you whether I think it is a major issue or not- simply because I don't have enough knowledge on it.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't know of any peers personally who are addicted to vaping, and I think this class would greatly benefit them. However I wonder if they would ever be able to take the steps to stop their addiction by taking the class.

# data[].attributes.body
Reaching out to the guidance counselors would definitely be a major step towards spreading the word. And I know at a lot of schools there are clubs surrounding issues similar to this, so reaching out to them as well would be beneficial as well.

# data[].attributes.body
While I don't personally know anyone that vapes, I would not be surprised if this was still an issue. I think this goes to show that while vaping is still present, it has improved greatly over the past few years.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that parents (who know about their child's vaping) would sign their kids up for this class, but it is unlikely students themselves would volunteer to attend.

# data[].attributes.body
Reach out to school guidance counselors, local doctors, and even parent/school facebook pages

# data[].attributes.body
Vaping still exists at my school, but it's not a huge issue as it was a couple years ago.

# data[].attributes.body
Even if people were looking for help I don't think they would sign up due to embarrassment and peer pressure to not take the class. In order for more people to consider taking the class, it would have to be anonymous.

# data[].attributes.body
I think advertising through social media will help a lot as well as sending information to guidance counselors.

# data[].attributes.body
I personally don't know anyone at my school that still vapes, but I know it was a very prevalent issue a few years ago. Then again, there could definitely be lots of students who still vape that I'm just not aware of.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think many people would want to admit to their peers that they're in a vaping cessation class, so the class itself would have to be very discrete and the participants should be anonymous. I also think that only people who want to quit vaping would sign up for the class, so those who are addicted and want to continue using their vape probably won't attend.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that writing to guidance counselors and posting about the class on social media will help information about this class reach a multitude of students.

# data[].attributes.body
I think vaping is still a big issue at school because even though there is not that much vaping in the classrooms or hallways there is still a lot of vaping in bathrooms and parties outside of school. Specifically I do not know any brands but I do know that the disposable Juuls are quite popular.

# data[].attributes.body
It is very unlikely that the addicts would sign up to the class and that's for one simple reason they do not care. They will continue vaping because they are addicted and no adult can tell them that it's wrong because they know that already that and are probably vaping out of spite or an act of rebellion. It could also cause the vapists to lose popularity which could cause them more problems.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that this program could be given to the school social worker and the student life coordinator so that they can work together to make announcements about the program and to go anonymously to the social worker and sign up in this way everything is kept private and more people could sign up.

vaping used to be much more popular in previous years and I think it has died down in recent years. Other drugs are being abused at a higher rate, in my opinion.

Vaping is still a big issue at my school, but there is less administrative acts to reduce vaping in school.  Other thing such as marijuana abuse and alcohol abuse are big issues at my school.

Yes, I know a lot of students who do it privately on their own. I think people just think it has died down since people are more discrete about it now

# data[].attributes.body
Probably not because many do not think what they are doing is a problem, and even if they do know this, most dismiss it and do not admit they need help

# data[].attributes.body
Definitely tell guidance counselors, because they have private relationships with students who have problems. Also send to parents possibly?

# data[].attributes.body
I think vaping is an issue at my school however I think it's talked about now than it was years ago. Juul is the most common brand I've heard of people using.

# data[].attributes.body
While the class is a great idea, I don't think people who are addicted to vaping would necessarily sign up for a class like this. Oftentimes, these addicts are in denial that they even have a problem at all so I don't know if they would willingly seek help in most cases.

# data[].attributes.body
I think direct announcements at school, a teacher speaking about the class during a course period for example, would be the best way to get the word out. It has to be advertised in a way that ensures people are actively listening and taking in the information.

# data[].attributes.body
Even though it's not as prevalent in the news anymore, vaping is still a very current and serious topic. We have to make sure we don't stop talking about it so we can properly aid those who need help.

# data[].attributes.body
Vaping is still an issue that High Schoolers face on a daily basis. A lot of people tend to buy what we call disposables which tend to be cheap and very replaceable. The most popular brand I have heard about is juuling, but it is not as used anymore because disposables tend to be cheaper.

# data[].attributes.body
Even though it can be very helpful, I don't think people are going to sign up because they are so used to this bad habit of vaping. I also don't think people would sign up because it is something we have talked about during certain classes in the past few years and I don't think that someone would want to join a meeting where their habits are being contradicted.

# data[].attributes.body
During gym class, we usually have our school substance abuse counselor come in and talk about it. I think it would be a great idea to work something out with all the counselors and have a project/activity for students to keep in mind how bad using these substance is.

# data[].attributes.body
Juuling used to be a way bigger issue than it is now. It's still an issue for those who are addicted but there isn't as much of an emphasis on it then there was in the past.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think students would sign up for this because the people still using these devices are the ones who don't care to quit.

# data[].attributes.body
I would reach out to the schools through the guidance departments so that they can send out the message to the school or you can do it through social media. There are several clubs that can create posters in the school to publicize the class.

# data[].attributes.body
While it has died down a little bit recently -- and I think Covid has been a major part of that -- vaping is still a notable issue at my high school. It's become so prevalent that a number of our school's bathrooms have been closed to fight drug usage (and other unenviable trends among teens).

# data[].attributes.body
Fortunately, I don't personally know anyone who vapes (to my knowledge), but I agree with the other comments. It would be incredible if people were to sign up for NWH's vaping cessation class, but I find it highly unlikely that teens will enroll. In addition to those who fail to realize that they have a problem, many students simply don't care. They realize how dangerous vaping can be but feel wholly apathetic when it comes to quitting or seeking help.

# data[].attributes.body
I would recommend sending out an online  registration form to entire student bodies. If emails with registration information are sent out to specific groups/clubs, or even worse, to specific people, students will become wary that they're being specifically targeted ("hey you, yeah you, with the vaping addiction!") and/or that their registration will be traceable to them. Likewise, I would advise against paper forms -- although they don't leave a digital "footprint," students may get scared that their handwriting can be traced back to them. Many schools, including mine, often have a Student Assistance Counselor who discusses drug-related issues with students who come to them. Since many students actively come to SACs to seek help through their own efforts, I would also recommend sending the form to SACs. They could then share information about the program with students of theirs who many be interested. In my mind, anonymity is the key.

All looks great! I hope some our peers find this class helpful. :)

I don't think many people would sign up for this class unless they were seriously looking for help. Many people who vape are likely already cognizant of its harmful effects and either don't think they are addicted or don't intend to stop. Maybe if this class was in a webinar/anonymous format people would be more likely to participate.

Notifying school guidance counselors would probably be the best method of getting the word out. At my school, there's a guidance counselor unaffiliated with the high school who specifically helps students with drugs/addiction struggles, so she would be a good resources for notifying students in need of help.

Vaping is not as big of an issue as it was in the past. In 2017, it was almost like an epidemic among peers because so many people were addicted to it. Now, it doesn’t seem as common. Teenage drinking is currently more significant.

# data[].attributes.body
It depends. Most peers who are addicted would need some sort of incentive to attend. Vaping is seen as an outlet to escape reality for a moment, so it would be difficult to convince those who are addicted to sign up for this course.

# data[].attributes.body
We can create flyers to hang around town. My school also has a student-run newspaper and weekly news broadcast. Perhaps we can create an article or a segment to help get the word out.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the vaping problem has definitely shrunk over the last few years as opposed to what it originally was. Not many people still vape, and if they do smoke, it is generally marijuana.

If I knew somebody who was truly struggling with vaping, I would want to inform this person to go to this meeting. If they did not go, I would sign up my self in order to help this person

We should reach out through schools, especially guidance councilors. We would have to ensure that it is a safe space and that people will willingly volunteer for this

I do believe that vaping continues to be an issue, however other unhealthy habits have become more prevalent. Use of perscription medication to provide a means of stability has increased in frequency, especially in the town of Somers where there are many athletes and many prone to injury. This has led to misuse of OTC's and other drugs. I believe there has been excessive daily use of sleeping medications, Tylonels, and other medications that are not adult monitered. Besides this, there is also use of weed that has been promoted on social media platforms. This has resulted in a groups badly influencing individuals and coersion into participation. :( It's sad to see.

# data[].attributes.body
If a peer or friend mentions this cessation class, and encourages a friend that does engage in this to participate, I do believe that they would. However, it would take a lot of self accountability for someone who does vape to attend this on their own terms, which I don't think would happen as often since peers are either in denial, scared to face the situation, or would feel embarrasment. :/

# data[].attributes.body
Generally, I think that flyers (although efficient from a communication and outreach perspective) have become somewhat impersonal. I think that counselors should make trips to each class or assemblies *with student athletes, S.A.A.S.A club members, and other classmen who care*. I think having students talk to students makes the topic more relatable, understandable, and will prompt more students who do engage in these ultimately damaging habits to want to fix them and find friends who can help by showing better habits while making connections.

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of students would appreciate knowing that the counseling they are recieving are from well credited professionals, so I think the inclusion of the list of credentials is excellent.

*I do think that one more thing should be included-- could we add the line:
"Find a way out" -- I think that a lot of people feel like there isn't another option and seeing that title instead of "Teen Cessation Class" might allude to them more. (Just a thought.)

# data[].attributes.body
I do not think that many would sign up. Kids who do vape do not want to publicly admit to adults that they vape because they either think it is "cool" or do not want to get in trouble. Furthermore, teens who do not vape will not attend because they do not feel as though they ever will vape so that the class wouldn't apply to them.

# data[].attributes.body
Like many have said flyers would be a great way. Another way might simply be through announcements. Our school, Fox Lane, each day has a "Take 5" where we just have 5 minutes and listen to the daily announcements. This would be a great way to get out a little blurb about the class and inform people on how they can learn to participate in the class.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that vaping and juuling isn’t as big as a problem as it used to be in our school district. Of course there are some people who still do Vape but a lot of students have realize that it has such a negative affect on the body.

# data[].attributes.body
I think someone who is vaping would sign up for a class if they wanted to get the help or they wanted to stop vaping. But if they didn’t want to get help and they didn’t want to stop vaping there is no reason why they would go.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the best way to get a message like this across to students would be by notifying guidance counselors, sports coaches and or administrators, and I also think some form of a social media platform would be a good way to get the message across to students.

# data[].attributes.body
I think a website like this would give a student an opportunity to get help.

# data[].attributes.body
Juuling definitely is not as big of an issue as it was at one point. While there are students that vape, it's not as active in schools. However, marijuana and alcohol use are much more prevalent.

# data[].attributes.body
Not a lot of students have reason to join a class like this -- they don't see vaping as an issue which needs to be ceased. Some do seek to end their addictions, but otherwise they just don't have much of an issue with it. There is also the possibility they perceive the class as adults trying to control their lives, part of the reason to why they vape in the first place.

# data[].attributes.body
Definitely through guidance counselors, schools physicians, and social media accounts. However, many students don't feel comfortable going to school officials if they feel they have issues like these, and so it'd be important for the schools themselves to create some sort of policy in which students could approach adults if they feel they have an issue which should be addressed.
