Based on Community Intervention's nationally recognized TAP cessation program, which has been proven effective in reducing teenage smoking, this inspirational, fast paced drama follows Jenny, a typical teenager who is trying to quit smoking. Through Jenny's eyes we learn first hand just how hard it is for her and other teens to break their addiction to both nicotine and the smoking culture they unwittingly adopted. Sure to encourage a lively debate in your classroom, this is not a video that turns smokers into villains; rather it offers them an encouraging message of hope when it comes to breaking the addiction chains around their necks.

At the same time, non-smokers will learn how important their support can be to friends who are trying to quit. This video and accompanying teacher's resource book can be used effectively alone or as a part of a larger smoking cessation program.

The video and print package emphasizes:

  • The short and long term effects of smoking
  • Coping strategies to combat tobacco triggers
  • Pitfalls to be expected during and after quitting
  • Individual choices of quitting smoking
