Hey do any of you work with school based cessation groups or have you been through one? If my abstract gets selected I would like a youth to co-present with me at NCTOH, Thanks! susan
In most schools there are programs to help youth quit smoking. Right now they do not openly welcome and support lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersexed, queer and questioning (LGBTIQ) youth.
I have presented an outline of a workshop for the National Conference On Tobacco Or Health (NCTOH-the HUGE Tobacco control conference that is happening right after our LGBTIQ Anti-Tobacco Summit) that will give suggestions to help make them more inclusive of LGBTIQ needs.
If my workshop is selected I would like to have a youth Co-Present with me who either helps peers quit smoking in a school based program or who stopped smoking with the help of a school based program and has ideas on how to make it more LGBTIQ friendly. Anyone Interested??

regarding tobacco prevention, cessation, and policy to liberate LGBTI
communities from tobacco use.
