The Office of the Surgeon General has released a new Youth Vaping Resource Guide  to combat the ongoing youth vaping crisis. Despite recent declines, e‑cigarettes remain the most commonly used tobacco product among U.S. middle and high school students, with more than 1.6 million youth reporting current use in 2024.

The guide provides evidence-based information and practical resources for parents, educators, healthcare providers, and community leaders to address nicotine addiction, protect youth brain development, and reduce the appeal of flavored products that continue to attract young users.
