"Ni****ne products are changing fast — and their impact on kids’ mental health is often overlooked. From increased anxiety and mood changes to a higher risk of addiction, ni****ne can quietly affect developing brains in ways many parents don’t expect.

Join Parents Against Va**ng for a focused conversation led by Jonathan Avery, M.D., a nationally recognized expert in addiction psychiatry, as we explore how ni****ne intersects with adolescent mental health, why youth are especially vulnerable, and how parents can recognize warning signs and offer support."

In 2025, Parents Against Va**ng is thrilled to continue Clear the V***r Conversations, an exciting year-long series inspired by our successful Clear the V***r conference! Our 2025 series drew over 10,000 registrants and thousands of live attendees.
