Reality Check is a youth movement within the Bureau of Tobacco Use Prevention and Control that is committed to exposing the manipulative and deceptive marketing practices of the tobacco industry. We strive to change the social norm regarding tobacco by de-normalizing and de-glamorizing tobacco, tobacco use and the tobacco industry. Reality Check is made up of teens from every county in New York State who want to tell the tobacco industry they can no longer target teens and young adults without any resistance.
Through activities, events, dances, movie nights, parties, tabling, concerts, battle of the bands and any other activity where youth can have fun- Reality Check makes sure to tell the truth about tobacco, and has a blast doing it!
