Episode #23: Becoming Tobacco Free Can Start With One Phone Call or Online Click

Tobacco users in every state in the U.S. can connect with
well-trained helpers who listen—not lecture—and provide
encouragement and resources to individuals who want to
leave tobacco behind. On request, some states,
including Vermont, send free nicotine replacement
therapy (NRT) such as patches, gum, and lozenges.
Guest Dana Bourne MPH manages telephone and online
"quit" services for Vermont residents and describes how
call centers operate locally and nationally. Many
individuals quit tobacco simply because they keep at it
and don't go it alone.
