Report: Teen Vaping and Substance Use Down during COVID-19 Lockdown

Researchers from Florida International University's Center for Children and Families recently published an article in Adolescent Health. They found that all e-cigarette users and approximately 85 percent of alcohol and marijuana users in their sample of 129 participants reported that their use either decreased or stayed the same since the COVID-19 lockdown. Researchers also recommend encouraging teens to engage in healthy coping strategies like eating healthy, keeping a consistent schedule and exercising to help offset mental health problems. Learn more.
