Youth and Adult Volunteers Needed for Enforcement Compliance Checks

If you would like to participate in checks on retailers to make sure tobacco products are not being sold to youth under age 18, please consider volunteering.

Permission forms required by the PA Department of Health must be completed in order to volunteer for Enforcement Compliance Checks (ECC). Under age buyers must complete the Youth Buyers form as well as the Parent/Guardian Permission form.

All youth must be between the ages of 14 to 17 yrs old. Some proof of age is required, such as, a copy of a birth certificate, driver license/permit, or baptismal certificate with date of birth. This volunteer activity may meet school community service project requirements.
