Be Tobacco Free

Right Decisions, Right Now: Be Tobacco Free is an evidence-based educational program designed to prevent young people in grades 5 – 9 from using tobacco in any form, including cigarettes and smokeless tobacco.

The Right Decisions, Right Now: Be Tobacco Free program was tested nationally and was found to be successful on two key measures: (1) recent smoking levels decreased significantly in test schools, particularly for grades 8-9, and (2) the program lowered anticipated tobacco use among middle school-aged students. In addition, students’ susceptibility to peer pressure and their perception of the popularity of tobacco-using peers both showed significant declines versus control groups.

The program materials and research have been reviewed by the National Registry of Evidence Based Programs and Practices (NREPP), a searchable online registry of mental health and substance abuse interventions developed by the
U. S. Department of Health and Human Service Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The Right Decisions, Right Now: Be Tobacco Free received an overall rating of 2.4 on a 0.0 to 4.0. The program is now listed on NREPP’s Web site as an evidence-based youth tobacco prevention program.

As a result of this review and rating, the program will meet the needs of educators who have expressed the desire for evidence-based youth tobacco prevention materials that would allow them to be aligned with the “No Child Left Behind” substance abuse prevention guidelines in receiving grants.
