Students Taking a New Direction (STAND) Youth Coalition
STAND is Arizona's statewide anti-tobacco youth coalition working to provide a safe environment for high school aged students. Members work to raise awareness about the dangers of tobacco use among their friends, in their schools, in their communities and with their local governments. Students who participate in STAND gain skills in leadership, advocacy, collaboration and experience shaping tobacco policy.
Our team can provide support, such as:
- Offer guidance engaging in community-based policy activities.
- Provide opportunities for students to coordinate events and educational awareness.
- Equip students with the resources to take part in tobacco control issues.
- Provide support stipends to School STAND Coordinator and club funding.
