Apply to be a 2016 Youth Advocate of the Year!

Helping your peers stay tobacco-free has so many benefits! Aside from the obvious ones, here are a few bonus reasons to stand up and speak out against Big Tobacco: scholarships, grants, leadership experience, and a trip to be honored at a gala in Washington, DC!

Here's the link for more info on how to apply to be a 2016 Youth Advocate of the Year:

Awesome October

Not a Replacement!

Today is Kick Butts Day! The Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids is celebrating 20 years of kicking butts!

What does this mean?

Thousands of youth, teachers, and health advocates will stand out, speak up, and seize control against Big Tobacco.

Watch the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids latest video about how the industry is still seeking "replacements" for the 1,300 Americans its products kill every day.

GYC had a great trip to the Utah State Capital last week! We are fortunate and appreciative that 5 of our Representatives and 1 of our Senators was able to visit the youth and talk about the Legislative session. Thank you to all that helped put this trip together.
