Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Providing no-cost health screenings for students who have already begun smoking is not a component of school-based prevention programs designed to reduce the number of teenagers who smoke cigarettes. The other options (having a no-smoking policy for students, staff, and school visitors, teaching strategies for resisting peer pressure to smoke, and teaching the health and social consequences of smoking) are all important components of effective prevention programs.
