Résumé :
By 1998, 42 states had implemented legislation to prohibit the purchase, possession, or use of tobacco by minors, a 24% increase since 1995. In response, communities have developed tobacco education classes, known as tobacco diversion programs, offered in lieu of, or in addition to, other penalties for youths cited for tobacco use. Despite the proliferation of these programs, little is known about their effect on youths' tobacco use. [Extract]
