The CDC states that a key component to reducing the toll of tobacco is sustaining, expanding and promoting quitline services. Did you know that the PA Free Quitline is NOT just a hotline? The Quitline is a telephone-based tobacco cessation counseling service offering up to five proactive coaching sessions, unlimited inbound calls, and customized quit plans to each participant. Coaches are available 7 days a week and coaching sessions can be scheduled for when it is most convenient.

The PA Free Quitline can (and SHOULD) also be used in conjunction with other cessation methods, such as in-person counseling, for additional support.

For more information, please visit the Quitlogix website, or the PA Free Quitline page on TobaccoFreeAllegheny.org.
