Carrollton, TX - January 28, 2025 - Robb Holla, a nationally-recognized youth motivational speaker is intensifying efforts to combat vaping among youths through engaging and interactive school assemblies. With an approach that blends humor, storytelling, and relatable content, Holla is changing how schools address this critical issue, inspiring students to make informed decisions about their health.
The statistics about youth vaping are alarming. In 2024, e-cigarettes were the most commonly used tobacco product among middle and high school students in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1.63 million students reported using e-cigarettes – 410,000 were middle school students and 1.21 million were high school students. These numbers reflect a critical need for targeted education and awareness programs to address this rising trend.
Holla’s assemblies steer away from traditional lectures and scare tactics, opting instead for a fresh and interactive approach that resonates with today’s youth. He connects with students by creating an engaging atmosphere where they feel comfortable listening, learning, and asking questions.
Holla’s assemblies dive into the following key topics:
-
Debunking Myths: Addressing common misconceptions about vaping, replacing misinformation with science-backed facts.
-
Consequences of Vaping: Educating students about the short- and long-term health effects of vaping, including nicotine addiction and its impact on mental and physical well-being.
-
How Influences and Perceptions Shape Vaping: Examining the role of peer pressure, social media, and targeted marketing by vaping companies that make vaping appealing to teens.
-
Tips on Making the Right Choices: Providing practical strategies for resisting peer pressure and making healthier decisions, supported by relatable stories and engaging activities.
“I believe that to reach young people, you have to connect with them on their level,” said Holla. “By using humor and interactive techniques, we can break down barriers and have honest conversations about the dangers of vaping. These assemblies are about more than just delivering information – they’re about empowering students to see through the myths, understand the risks, and make choices that prioritize their health and future.”
Holla’s approach has received positive responses from several educators, who have reported positive changes in students’ attitudes towards vaping and a greater willingness to advocate for healthier habits among peers. His assemblies offer a fresh and impactful solution for schools that have struggled to connect with students using traditional methods, inspiring them to make a lasting difference in the fight against youth vaping.
