N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – Central Valley Health is inviting everyone to join the 39th Annual Great American Smokeout on November 20th.

The event is held traditionally to get smokers to quit, but now they are using the vent to prevent tobacco use among the kids. Prevention efforts are more important than ever because marketing products to youth has been increasing. In an attempt to keep prices low, tobacco companies use special discounts and promotions that make their products cheap to buy.

Tobacco companies also make sure their addictive products are placed in highly visible areas that appeal to youth, such as near candy displays or at the checkout counter.

To learn more about tobacco prevention contact Central Valley Health at 701-252-8130 or visit the Breathe ND website.
