Call for Student Filmmakers for an Anti-Vaping PSA

Montgomery County middle and high school students are encouraged to create an original video public service announcement (PSA) as part of the County’s anti-vaping campaign. Co-sponsored by Healthy Montgomery, the County’s community health improvement program, and Montgomery County Public Schools, the goal of the contest is to promote awareness of the dangers of vaping (the use of e-cigarettes) among students.

Winning submissions will earn prizes and present their video at a County Council session. Submissions are due by Friday, Dec. 20.

Students can enter the contest on their own or as a group; however, students may only participate in one entry. The winning PSAs will be announced in February and cash prizes will be given to the first, second and third place entries. Prizes will also be given to the fourth and fifth place. An expert judging panel will review submissions.

Learn more about entry rules and submission instructions on the Healthy Montgomery website.

The contest is made possible by the support of Trinity Health, Holy Cross Health and the Institute for Public Health Innovation through Trinity Health’s Transforming Communities Initiative.
