About this Event
505 East 70th Street, New York NY 10021
Substance use among adolescents and young
adults has been declining recently except for
one substance: nicotine. In the United States,
Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS) are
being used in record numbers to consume
nicotine, with nearly 2 in 5 students in 12th
grade reporting past-year vaping.
All adolescents, parents, and interested
community members are welcome to join Dr.
Jonathan Avery, an addiction psychiatrist, and
Dr. Lisa Ipp, an adolescent medicine physician,
to learn more about youth substance use and
receive free naloxone rescue kits.
Sessions are free and will take place at Helmsley Tower (505 East 70th Street on the corner of 70th Street and York Avenue) on the 3rd floor in room HT-350.
