Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Adolescent Health
  • Tobacco Control

Background:

  • Peer influences and role models in schools can encourage smoking initiation among students.
  • Comprehensive programs and resources are increasingly available to aid schools in smoking prevention and cessation efforts.
  • Governmental regulations at state and local levels are supporting smoke-free school environments and mandating smoking education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline strategies for schools to counteract peer influences promoting smoking initiation.
  • To present a framework for developing comprehensive smoking prevention and cessation programs in educational settings.
  • To identify resources supporting interventions in student education, school policy, and governmental regulation.
