As Saint Lucia joins the global observance of World No Tobacco Day 2026, health officials are sounding the alarm over a growing trend among the nation’s youth. While traditional cigarette smoking is on the decline, the rise in vaping and other nicotine products has prompted renewed efforts to educate the public and protect young people from the dangers of tobacco use.
The Ministry of Health, Wellness and Nutrition, through the Substance Abuse Advisory Council Secretariat (SAACS), is strengthening its public education and awareness campaign as concerns grow over the increasing use of electronic cigarettes, vaping devices, and heated tobacco products among adolescents.
