Tobacco Prevention

Dr. DeBenedittis is recognized as one of America's foremost experts on media literacy and tobacco advertising. He has presented at four National Conferences on Tobacco and Health and two ASSIST National Meetings. He has consulted for the CDC Office on Smoking and Health and the National Cancer Institute. More than 20 state tobacco prevention programs have hired him to address conferences and tour communities. Peter's powerful tobacco prevention message has reached hundreds of thousands of students. Post-tests reveal that a third of smokers attending his talks make an immediate attempt to quit, and 70% of non-smokers say they are less likely to ever start.
