How I Support Our Students
The Prevention & Support Hub
Join the Movement and Drop the Vape.
🚭 Featured Resource: "Drop the Vape" Campaign
Vaping exposes growing bodies to addictive nicotine, toxic metals, and chemicals that can worsen stress, anxiety, and mood. If you or a friend are ready to quit—or just want to explore what quitting looks like—free, completely anonymous, and confidential help is available right from your phone.
📱 Free Text Support: Text "DropTheVape" to 88709 to enroll in New York’s specialized text-based quitting program. You will receive 2 to 4 realistic, supportive text prompts per day to help you build coping skills and take control at your own pace.
💻 Connect Online: Visit the official NYC Vaping Support Hub or DropTheVape.org to access interactive toolkits, chat with a live Quit Coach, or find local youth programs.
🏫 Talk in School: Remember, you can always visit my office in Room 247 for completely safe, confidential guidance and resources.
