Welcome to Vaping Unplugged — Everything you want to know about vaping and harm reduction advocacy.
Join us for an insightful conversation with Allison Boughner. As the Marketing and Communications Director and FDA liaison at Ecig Charleston, she is also the President of the South Carolina Vapor Association and the Communications Director for the United States Vaping Association. Her passion for advocacy stems from the misinformation coming from public health authorities in the US. She was astonished to see how this powerful technology, which finally helped her quit smoking after all other options had failed, was being portrayed so negatively. She believes it is her duty to speak out against misinformation, as every smoker deserves accurate and positive information about the health benefits of e-cigarettes as a smoking cessation tool.
