Ephraim McDowell Health Launches “Break the Vape” Student PSA Contest

Ephraim McDowell Health (EMH) is proud to announce the launch of its “Break the Vape” Public Service Announcement (PSA) Contest, a youth prevention initiative designed to empower students to speak out about the dangers of vaping.

The contest invites middle and high school students across the EMH service area to create a short, original video PSA that raises awareness about the health risks associated with vaping while encouraging their peers to make healthy choices.

As a special initiative, the winning PSA will be showcased on the big screen at Danville Cinemas 8, giving students a unique opportunity to have their message shared with the broader community.
