Teacher Online Resources

As teachers you spend much of your day with youth, and you have a large influence on the students in your classroom. Here is an accumulation of great resources on e-cigarettes to gain a better understanding of e-cigarette devices and this current youth epidemic. Recovery booklets and two pagers are provided as well.

Resources for Quitting Vaping
While Be Epic’s main focus is on prevention, we understand that many youth are already vaping and need help quitting. Quitting vaping can be hard and youth need lots of love and support. Teachers can help by being compassionate and informed.

Evidence-Based E-cigarette Prevention Curriculums for Use in the Classroom
  • CATCH My Breath
    • A free, 4-lesson evidence-based vaping prevention curriculum for 5th-12th grade students that has been shown to significantly reduce the likelihood of youth vaping in the year following program implementation. CATCH also provides supplemental STEM, humanities, and PE curriculums. For a free training on the use of CATCH My Breath in the classroom, reach out to your local Be Epic coordinator: https://extension.usu.edu/be-epic/contact-us
  • Stanford REACH Lab: You and Me, Together Vape-Free
