Tobacco Use Prevention and Smoking Cessation
We are passionate about keeping tobacco out of the hands of young people and helping you kick the habit. Our team of experts is dedicated to educating and spreading awareness while walking you through one of the most difficult behavior changes you can face.
Smoking Cessation
Whether you’re beginning your smoke-free journey or need help staying on track, we can develop a plan that works for you. Our team of experts works with you to explore a variety of treatment options and helps you focus on effective quit tactics, including:
- Internal and external motivators
- Recognition and avoidance of triggers
- Education that highlights the health benefits tied to quitting
Tobacco Prevention
We are committed to helping children decide to never smoke. We provide the “No Tobacco Challenge” – a one-day classroom discussion campaign that includes a presentation about the dangers associated with tobacco use. Students have the opportunity to accept the No Tobacco Challenge and pledge to be tobacco free. The program culminates with an art project, in which each student portrays their commitment to a tobacco-free life. One student is chosen as a grand prize winner from a pool of finalists.
Quitline
Calling this toll-free number will connect you directly to your state quitline. All states have quitlines in place with trained coaches who provide information and help with quitting. Specific services and hours of operation vary from state to state.
It’s never too early to learn about how tobacco products can negatively affect your health.
