Grand Rapids Urban League Students Lead Anti-Vaping/Smoking Campaign

The Grand Rapids Urban League (Grand Rapids, MI) is taking a strong stance on smoking and vaping when it comes to our youth.

The organization encourages healthy living and lifestyles, housing, employment, equity, inclusion and more. Alarming numbers when it comes to youth and vaping have encouraged them to take the matter head on.

Acting as advocates, they work with leaders on a local and state level. Social media has been a great platform for them to get their message across. Recently they went to MLK Park to do a clean-up and netted more than 1,300 cigarette butts! When it comes to vaping, they don’t want to wait 50 years down the road to see what the true impact will be on one’s health.
