VKAT Leader's Projects

Please check out our new video created by Aleksandra Cirovic of VTLSP/OVX!

Astrid McFarland from VKAT has created two important projects. One was a mental health campaign. Mental Health flyers were posted in the school, providing ways one can take care of themselves. For example, get enough sleep, stay hydrated, and exercise regularly. The second is a bulletin board of Vermonters who've lost their lives due to addiction. The goal of this project was to show that Vermonters as young as 16 have lost their life due to addiction. Addiction does not have an age requirement.

Student Leaders attended a Rally at the State House in Montpelier

Aleksandra Cirovic from VTLSP/OVX and Astrid McFarland from VKAT attended the Rally at the State House in Montpelier on Tuesday, Feb. 13. Students from OVX and VKAT groups all over Vermont attended. These groups understand the impact of tobacco and nicotine addiction, along with the tobacco industry's ability to target youth with fruity flavors and attractive technology of the vaping devices. The Rally provides youth a platform to educate and inform key decision makers and fellow Vermonters about tobacco and nicotine related issues, as seen and experienced firsthand. We also met with Senator Alison Clarkson, which was a great experience. Representative Tesha Buss also was attempting to connect with us throughout the day and we greatly appreciate that she tried!
