CADCA’s Geographic Health Equity Alliance (GHEA) is partnering with the Public Health Law Center to present “E-Cigarette Collection and Disposal in Schools: ABCs and FAQs” on Wednesday, November 17, from 2-3:30 pm EST.
Now that students have returned to in-person learning, schools are saddled with the responsibility of properly managing and disposing of e-cigarette products. This is no easy burden, and some schools have started to ask if “vape drop boxes” have a role to play in addressing the e-cigarette epidemic. This webinar will discuss the hazardous waste status of e-cigarettes and the potential dangers of “vape drop boxes,” as well as highlight some local and state efforts being pursued in Colorado, Utah and California and discuss best practices that schools (and other public entities) can adopt to handle and regulate these products.
