Thank you to our coalition members, partners, and concerned citizens across the country who helped us fight to Keep DTW Smoke Free! Today is proof that education and advocacy makes a difference.

🚬 WAIT… CIGARETTES… MAKING A COMEBACK?

A surprising new trend is emerging: some Gen Z and younger adults are reportedly trading in their vapes for “old-school” ci******es, fueled in part by a wave of ’90s nostalgia.

Did you ever think we’d see this happen again?

The Guidance Center and the Detroit Recovery Project are supporting healthy environments for airport workers, youth, travelers, and pets!
