Teens Who Ever Tried E-Cigarettes

State: Hawaii
Measurement Period: 2021
This indicator shows the percent of public school students in grades 9-12 who have ever tried an electronic vapor product (e.g. e-cigarettes, vaping pens).

Why is this important?

E-cigarettes, electronic smoking devices, or vapes, are battery-powered devices that provide doses of nicotine and other potentially harmful chemicals in aerosol form to the user. Nicotine is highly addictive and can harm brain development, especially among adolescents. Since 2014, e-cigarettes have been the most commonly used tobacco product among teens and experimentation with e-cigarettes is still increasing. Preventing initiation of tobacco use among teens can prevent adverse health outcomes later in life.
