Tennessee Youth Councils

TNSTRONG (Tennessee Stop Tobacco and Revolutionize Our New Generation)

A youth-led, statewide movement committed to raising awareness of the dangers of tobacco and fighting against the tobacco industry's influence on Tennessee Youth. 

Regional and Metro Tobacco Coordinators along with Health Educators are empowering teens to use their influence to create social change, educate their peers, and influence younger youth on the dangers of tobacco.
