NY Quitline: Helping Low-Income Smokers Quit for Free
NY Quitline provides free resources to help low-income individuals in NY quit smoking, addressing the state's high smoking rates.

According to a report from New Jersey on May 7th, a recent study shows that in New York, individuals with a household annual income of $25,000 or less are more likely to smoke compared to those in other income brackets, leading to greater health risks. However, the New York State Quitline has actively responded to this issue by providing free resources to anyone looking to quit smoking. Their mission is to help individuals in low-income brackets transition to smoke-free lives more easily.

 

The New York State Quitline is an ideal starting point to help smokers quit, especially for those facing economic pressures. Paula Celestino, Director of Customer Relations at the Quitline, understands the challenges of quitting smoking. She emphasizes the importance of providing free support and help to those who need it most. They are focusing on developing new projects and services to help more people struggling with smoking and health issues.

 

Anyone can start their smoke-free journey by calling the New York State Quitline. They offer a range of services including online chat, call-back requests, and free nicotine replacement therapy. It is hoped that all residents of New York State can begin their journey to quitting smoking and move towards a healthier lifestyle.
