Tobacco Use Prevention Education (TUPE) provides educational services and resources to districts and students within Yuba County to assist in the prevention of youth using tobacco products.  Our program provides trained Prevention Assistants to go out to the schools and administer individualized interventions to youth who have used tobacco products.  In addition, we also provide funding and educational resources for two programs for middle and high school youth to educate youth on the harms of tobacco products and to teach youth to resist tobacco products.  Our program also conducts events throughout the year at various school sites as a part of outreach and education.  We also provide parenting classes to parents and guardians.
