Most smokers begin smoking in adolescence. According to the CDC, nearly 9 out of 10 smokers first smoked by the age of 18. Additionally, electronic cigarette use is growing among teens and young adults.
Through a comprehensive TUPP program, Job Corps is poised to prevent smoking in students who do not yet smoke and to help smokers quit.
