Bendigo Community Health Services is driving conversations around vaping with young people, while equipping parents, carers and educators with the facts on vaping use and harms.
This month will see the first BCHS Tough Talks webinar presented, focusing on vaping and how to support young people to stop.
It will feature YSAS nurse practitioner, mental health and addiction specialist Lee Kennedy, secondary school nurse Andrea Scott and BCHS Health Promotion Officers.
Senior Health Promotion Officer Siobhan Sullivan said there had been a significant increase in young people vaping in Bendigo, and many parents were worried and wanted to know how their young people could get support to stop.
