Caldwell County TRU Clubs

There are currently health clubs at South Caldwell, West Caldwell,
and Hibriten High schools.  

The health clubs are designed to give young people a voice on
issues that are important to them.  

Our main focus is tobacco prevention because smoking kills more
people every year than AIDS, car accidents, murders, suicide, and
illegal drugs combined.

The TRU groups are dedicated to giving the facts on tobacco use,
the dangers of tobacco, and how to avoid the tobacco trap.

These teens are advocates for a healthier future!
