The City of Fishers is making strides in youth tobacco prevention through the CATCH My Breath program, an evidence-based initiative designed to educate students about the dangers of e-cigarettes and empower them to make healthy choices. Led by Kacy Brobst, a Public Health Educator at the Fishers Health Department, the program has already reached over 4,300 students across the community. By using real-world data and interactive lessons, CATCH My Breath helps debunk myths surrounding vaping, equipping young people with the knowledge and confidence to resist peer pressure and stay nicotine-free.
Fishers’ success with the program highlights the city’s commitment to proactive public health initiatives. The CATCH My Breath curriculum aligns with the broader mission of the Fishers Health Department, ensuring that students, educators, and families have the tools they need to combat youth vaping. With continued support from schools and the community, Fishers is setting a strong example of how education and outreach can create a healthier, vape-free future for the next generation.
