Vaping and nicotine pouches aren’t going away, and young people with behavioral health conditions are using them at far higher rates than their peers – often with no one asking the right questions.
Join us for a practical look at the new clinical practice guidelines for treating youth and young adult tobacco and nicotine use, featuring a real-world case study.
Whether you work in a school-based clinic, substance use treatment program, or behavioral health setting, you’ll leave with concrete tools to screen for vaping and nicotine use, assess dependence severity, and connect young people to the right level of behavioral and pharmacologic support.
