Behind the Haze
As part of Indiana’s Vape-Free Indiana effort, the Indiana Department of Health has partnered with Rescue Agency to launch Behind the Haze, a statewide evidence-based vaping prevention campaign to reduce vaping among Indiana youth.

Behind the Haze is a campaign that delivers compelling and evidence-based health education that motivates young people (13-21) to rethink their vaping behaviors and/or intentions.
