The Adolescent Smoking Cessation Escaping Nicotine and
Tobacco (ASCENT) Program
About 70 percent of smokers 12 to 17 years of age consider themselves addicted
to cigarettes. Yet, there are very few resources that specifically target teen
smokers. Cessation tools that help adults stop smoking aren't always
developmentally appropriate for teens. ASCENT is a fun, engaging way
to help youths understand social influences and learn refusal skills.
