Quit Resources for Youth
Kick It California has helped Californians quit tobacco and nicotine for over 30 years. KIC provides free, personalized support to young people who want help to quit vaping, smoking, or using smokeless tobacco. Below are resources for schools to promote KIC services in your communities; enroll your school in our YVape program as an alternative to disciplinary action for students caught vaping; and to refer your students who want help to quit.
YVape: Youth Vaping Alternative Program Education
YVape's Mission is to educate students about vaping, decrease recidivism and suspension rates, build a positive bond between Kick It California and students, and provide resources for students who want to reduce or quit vaping.
▪ Free educational program with phone coaching & videos for students who have been vaping at school.
▪ California public middle and high schools can enroll students in YVape as an alternative disciplinary action for vaping.
▪ YVAPE is designed to provide a positive experience for the student and help them think through their vaping behavior.

YVape is funded by the Orange County Department of Education: Capacity Building Project and California Department of Education.
YVape Videos cover a variety of topics like how tobacco companies target youth; how vaping nicotine and marijuana can affect the body; and how to deal with stress.
“I tried to quit once before, but I was being mean to everyone. This time I asked for help, rather than me doing it alone. They gave me lots of support.””
