Pam Laffin, a 31-year-old mother of two young girls, died from emphysema. In the program, Pam tells why she started smoking and what it was like to learn she had emphysema, a smoking-related disease for which there is no cure. Despite her debilitating illness, Pam was committed to sharing her story so others might learn from her. The 20-minute video, coupled with a moderator's guide, is designed to help lead classroom discussions with students about the consequences of cigarette smoking. The program has been created specifically for young people aged 11 to 14 years. The product is a joint effort between the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and CDC’s Office on Smoking and Health.
