5. Health Impacts

6. The Health Triangle
- It makes you
surround yourself
with people that
also smoke and do
drugs. (It can make
you lose your
current friends or
stop socializing with
them)
- Nicotine changes
the way your
brain works
Addiction from that light
headed feeling can make you
react more slowly, harder to
focus on work

7. Our Goal
Our main goal is to
cut down on juuling
in schools and
amongst teens.

8. Our Vision
Our vision is to:
❖ Keep school bathrooms Juul free
❖ Make sure kids aren’t afraid to say
“no”
❖ Keep smoke shops from selling to
minors
❖ Make juuling less of a habit amongst
teens
❖ Have stricter rules/laws against the
use and distributing of Juuls
