The Ex Program
Want to Quit Tobacco? Become an Ex
The Tobacco-Free Yellow Jackets have been part of the WVSU campus for over a decade! First known as the Tobacco Prevention Initiative, which was founded by the Choices Peer Educators, then growing into it’s own independent organization the Tobacco-Free Yellow Jackets in 2011. The TFYJ have always been a student led initiative consisting of students that are passionate about the health of the campus community, striving to educate, engage and motivate others to become tobacco-free.
In January of 2018 WVSU the Department of Health and Human Performance and the Tobacco-Free Yellow Jackets were awarded grant funding by the Truth Initiative organization for the WVSU Breathe Easy Initiative. This opportunity has reignited the Tobacco-Free Yellow Jackets and is helping the organization to grow and again gain support across campus.
