Parents Against Vaping e-cigarettes (PAVe)

Parents Against Vaping e-cigarettes (PAVe) is a national grassroots 501c4 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 educators and advocates are operating in multiple states, working in partnership with other stakeholders and the broader anti-tobacco coalition. We believe that regulatory and legislative change at the federal/national and/or state and local levels (including a ban on all e-cigarette flavors including mint and menthol and Tobacco 21 Laws without exceptions) are key to slowing the explosive growth of teen vaping and will prevent younger kids from starting to use flavored e-cigarettes including JUUL. We also educate parents and other adults on the dangers of youth vaping in hopes that they will become advocates for their kids and for PAVe. We receive funding for education through our 501C3 fiscal sponsor.
