Description:
Indoor tanning increases a person’s risk of skin cancer and is especially risky for young people. Nearly 1 out of every 3 white high school girls tans indoors each year. Public health efforts by state and local agencies can protect young people from the harms of indoor tanning. These efforts range from communication and educational strategies that increase knowledge and awareness to research and surveillance that can support strategies to restrict youth access to indoor tanning. This publication provides information about indoor tanning among minors and potential strategies for reducing indoor tanning among minors in your community.
