Join the Youth Coalition.
We have the power to protect our youth, save lives, and build a healthier future for North Carolina.
Youth voices are essential to shaping effective legislative policy. We are seeking young people, ages 21 and younger, who want to learn more about this, participate in the policymaking process, empower their peers through education about the harmful effects of nicotine and vaping, and take action to help pass Solly’s Law.
