Kick Butts! Day is an annual, nation-wide event and is a great opportunity to engage middle and high school students in quick, low cost tobacco prevention activities.
One opportunity for young people is to make a (selfie) statement with the #NotAReplacement campaign! Check out this short video from the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids for more information:
To view guides for this and other activities, visit KickButts.org
Can't celebrate today? All Kick Butts! Day activities can be implemented on another day!
Sincerely,
