PAVe (Parents Against Vaping e-cigarettes) is a grassroots organization founded by three concerned moms as a response to the current youth vaping epidemic, the most serious adolescent public-health crisis our country has faced in decades. PAVe’s volunteer parent advocates, operating in multiple states, have forged strong partnerships with other stakeholders including educators and pediatricians; public-health nonprofits and anti-tobacco groups;  academic research institutions and medical facilities. We believe that regulatory and legislative change (including a ban on e-cigarette flavors and support of Tobacco 21 laws) at the federal and/or state and local levels are key to slowing the explosive growth of  teen vaping and will prevent younger kids from starting to use flavored e-cigarettes including JUUL.
