MONTANA KEY FACTS In 2015, 38.5% of Montana high school youth reported currently using any tobacco product, including e-cigarettes. Among Montana high school youth, 13.1% reported currently smoking cigarettes. PUBLIC HEALTH RESPONSE TO TOBACCO USE IN MONTANA Montana has made educating youth about the harms of tobacco use a key component in the state’s plan to prevent youth use. From 2014-2016, Montana funded 40 grants for youth workgroups and summits throughout the state. The state also holds an annual “Native American Teens Against Commercial Tobacco” camp, attended by an average of 70 Native American youth representing several tribes in Montana. The three-day meeting includes opportunities for students to learn about the dangers of commercial tobacco. Three hundred and nine (75%) school districts in the state have comprehensive tobacco-free policies. For more information on tobacco prevention and control, visit cdc.gov/tobacco.
