CHARLESTON (AP) -
A new report says West Virginia isn't investing enough in its efforts to help smokers quit and prevent kids from smoking.
The report released Thursday by a coalition of public health groups says West Virginia has the second highest rate of adults who smoke in the nation at 28.6%. About 19% of high school students smoke.
But the report ranks West Virginia 19th in the nation in tobacco prevention funding.
According to the report, the state will receive $231 million this year from the 1998 tobacco settlement and tobacco taxes. But only 2.5% of the revenue will be used for tobacco prevention and cessation programs.
The report says most states aren't providing adequate funding for these programs.
