Vaping is a significant issue affecting teens. It is an area of concern for parents, school administrators & teachers,  and community leaders.  Farmington Community Services actively looks for ways to educate the public, address concerns, and work with teens and their families who are affected by vaping.  We also work collaboratively with the Farmigton Valley Health District on this issue so that we have greater access to regional resources and information.
