ConverSage proudly introduces an evidence-based, behavior-changing anti-vaping VR game developed by researchers at Yale University School of Medicine. The game delivers the scientific facts about how vaping negatively affects adolescents’ health and gives them the skills to make healthy decisions. The goals for the program are:
1) Reduce the likelihood that adolescents and young teens will (a) adopt vaping and/or (b) continue to vape and potentially ingest more harmful, potentially addictive, substances such as THC; and
2) Empower adolescents, young teens, and their caring adults to confidently initiate “difficult conversations” with their at-risk peers and children, respectively, to educate and discourage them from vaping.
