On April Fool's Day, Greene County Public Health (GCPH) is partnering with Greene County Family & Children First and youth group TAT: Teens Against Tobacco, to host an event for Take Down Tobacco National Day of Action, a nationwide movement to stand up and speak out against the tobacco industry. Youth art will be on display, advocating for a vape-free future along with raffle prizes, Take Down Tobacco online games, face painting & temporary TATtoos, activities and games, food, and video showing of TAT Man and Oxygen Boy at 1pm & 2pm.

Now, they’re trying to fool Gen-Z into their cycle of addiction with flavored products, potent doses of nicotine, and misinformation that they have changed their ways and are no longer the bad guys. That’s why GCPH and young people in Greene County are calling out these jokers and joining the nationwide movement to #TakeDownTobacco. Read more.
