9/18 - JMN IN-DEPTH - "WE CARD" Responsible Retailer Program
Doug Anderson is the President of We Card, a national nonprofit, that trains retail owners and employees to spot both underage buyers and adults purchasing age-restricted tobacco, vape, or nicotine products on a minor's behalf. They have thousands of classroom sessions in all 50 states. Federal law prohibits anyone under 21 from buying tobacco, vape or nicotine pouch products, and retailers check IDs to enforce it. But minors most often report getting these products another way, by getting someone of age to buy or hand them over. It's called social sourcing. Visit WECARD.ORG for more information.

Over the past decade, the organization has brought more than a hundred students, scientists and community volunteers together to protect North Florida’s diamondback terrapins through meticulous data collection, research and rehabilitation across six field sites. Diamondback terrapins are native to North Florida and currently facing an onslaught of threats from predation, habitat loss and human threats like road mortality and crab traps. The research and rehabilitation conducted by Team Terrapin is crucial to protecting this local species from extinction.
