With spring right around the corner, it’s a great time to take action towards your goals. But, if we're all about work all of the time, we can lose connection to our well-being. This season, let's inspire the global CATCH community and beyond to take action while also prioritizing health in mind, heart, and body.❤️ Share a post in your classroom, at home, or in your community emphasizing how you “do” health and tag us #CATCHJourney!

Today is a good day.
It’s easier to be a parent this morning.
Character MATTERS.
Being a good person MATTERS.
This is a big deal.
It’s easy to do it the cheap way and get away with stuff — but it comes back around.
Today is a good day.

@ChaunceyGardner @AddictionsPMC @imaracingmom @deannahoelscher @txlegeobesity @PublicHealth @CDCgov It was negligent at best and nefarious at worst; the reality is probably somewhere in the middle. You are strongly defending some super shady marketing practices, though. If half of Juul’s social followers were underage, what exactly does that say about their marketing?
English

@brooksballard @AddictionsPMC @imaracingmom @deannahoelscher @txlegeobesity @PublicHealth @CDCgov To believe vape companies EVER deliberately "targetted" illegal under-age kids, you need to assume (1) improbable evil, (2) an unlikely willingness to openly break the law, and (3) insane business sense when there are 34 million US smokers with a demonstrated willingness to pay.

E-cigarettes are now the most commonly used tobacco product among teens according to data from the Texas Adolescent Tobacco and Marketing Surveillance Study (TATAMS). We must address teen vaping in TX. Learn more at go.uth.edu/TexasChildHeal… @txlegeobesity @PublicHealth @CDCgov
