Tobacco Use Prevention Education (TUPE)
Yolo County Office of Education (YCOE) provides technical assistance to all of our districts by providing tobacco-free schools. Three out of our five districts are part of the Tier 2 funding. This grant provides funding for the following districts: Winters Unified School District, Davis Joint Unified School District, and Esparto Unified School District. Each of these districts is receiving funding to support Tobacco Use Prevention Education for students, staff, and parents. YCOE works closely with each district to provide educational resources. Presently all districts are using the Stanford Tobacco Prevention Toolkit to educate students on the effects of vaping.
