Do you have a teen between the ages of 15-18 who is currently va**ng and interested in quitting? Check out this amazing opportunity to get some extra help!

We're excited to share a unique opportunity that could make a real difference for families affected by youth va**ng.

We have partnered with researchers at Harvard Medical School and the University of Nebraska Medical Center - UNMC on a first-of-its-kind youth va**ng cessation study. Together, we're recruiting parents and teens to help evaluate a new approach that empowers parents to play an active role in supporting their teen's quit journey while advancing research that could help families across the country.

If your teen is ready to quit—or even beginning to think about quitting—we encourage you to take a look at this flyer. It includes everything you need to know about eligibility, what participation involves, and how to enroll.

We know that quitting ni****ne isn't easy, and no family should have to navigate it alone. That's why we're so excited to help connect families with this opportunity to receive support while contributing to research that has the potential to shape the future of youth va**ng cessation.

If you're interested in participating, please sign up here: https://unmcredcap.unmc.edu/redcap/surveys/?s=XEL79KNAKLPPAM4L&eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=eb52100e-6976-48dd-9777-3940d123c27d

Whether this opportunity is right for your family or someone you know, we hope you'll consider participating or sharing it with others who may benefit.

The world is throwing a lot at q***r and trans youth these days and is sending some messages that they don't belong. Right now their caregivers and other adults who love them need to be louder than the other negative voices and tell them often and proudly that they are loved and that they belong.

We had a fantastic turn out for our recent ParentIN event on Healthy Use of Technology. We invited experts from the Howard Center, the Burlington School District and Technology for Tomorrow to help parents and caregivers gain confidence around technologies and platforms their kids are using, set up parental controls, and discuss the health impacts of social media and tech. Thank you to all our partners and especially to the attendees who took time on a snowy evening for learning and community building to support all our kids. 🧠💗
