Texas PTA hosts Facebook Live on vaping
|
The PTA in Texas works tirelessly to ensure the health and happiness of all students. With the U.S. vaping crisis now at a dangerous new high among teens, Texas PTA recognizes the urgency to address this critical situation well before the start of the 87th Legislative Session next year.
Students as young as middle school are becoming sick because of this popular yet lethal trend, and much of this crisis is playing out every day in schools across the state.
On February 25, beginning at noon, Texas PTA is hosting the first-ever Straight Talk at the Capitol: A Matter of Life and Breath. Three panels will give students, parents, and physicians an opportunity to share their stories on vaping and discuss what can be done – at home, in school, and at the state level.
