TATU is a program of the American Lung Association.

As a part of the TATU (Teens Against Tobacco Use) program in Washington County, teens from the high school get involved in things like visiting the intermediate school to do a Banruku (life-sized) puppet show.

Did You Know?

Nicotine is a highly addictive drug found in all tobacco products—cigarettes, snuff, chewing tobacco (dip) and cigars. For many people, nicotine is as addictive as "hard core" drugs like heroin or cocaine!


While the media sometimes makes it seem like everyone smokes, thats not true. Fewer than 1 in 4 adults smokes today. That's why tobacco companies are trying so hard to hook teens to be new customers.
