Clearing the Clouds: Demystifying the Vape Shop

Vape shops, or retail stores that specialize in e-cigarettes and related products, seem to be popping up everywhere.  Although the total number of vape shops in the United States is unknown due to a current lack of regulatory and licensing policies, estimates range anywhere from 3,500 to 35,000 and growing. In this Consortium webinar, presenters will provide a summary of the most recent literature published on vape shops, discuss policy options for regulating them in light of the FDA’s new deeming rule, describe a new tool for conducting observational store assessments, and share a local case study from New Hampshire. 

Presenters:

• Desmond Jenson, JD, Staff Attorney at theTobacco Control Legal Consortium at the Public Health Law Center
• Kurt Ribisl, PhD, UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health, Co-Founder of CounterTobacco.org
• Susan Morrison, M.Ed., Program Specialist IV at the New Hampshire Department of Health & Human Services

Moderator:

• Mark Meany, JD, MA, Staff Attorney at the Tobacco Control Legal Consortium.
