On this episode of Queer Goggles, we're talking with Gabriela Vaca, the Youth Engagement Coordinator with the HEAL Project over at the California Health Collaborative. In our conversation, we discuss how the HEAL Project tackles youth substance use prevention with creativity and self-expression, their successes in passing local tobacco control policies, and the importance of encouraging youth leadership within prevention and advocacy work.

If you'd like to know more about The HEAL Project you can follow them on Instagram at @heal.project. If you'd like to reach out to Gabriela Vaca directly, you can reach her at gvaca@healthcollaborative.org!

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
