How to use this website
The No Smokes website is a fantastic tool to use with upper
primary, secondary students, and young adults who are thinking
about quitting or wanting more information about the health effects
of tobacco. It is particularly aimed at Australian Aboriginal
and Torres Strait Islanders from 12-25 years old, however all young
people or Indigenous Australians of any age should benefit from the
information on this website. Please feel free to use the
website and its materials in any way that suits your students or
clients and your context.
