NYS Quitline

New York health officials warn that federal funding cuts could undermine the state’s tobacco quitline, which has helped millions quit smoking over the past 25 years.

What started as a humble operation in 2000 has now taken nearly three million calls and has evolved to help people in multiple ways.

The NYS Quitline goes fare beyond a phone number. There's also a website, text service, medication, counseling, and other resources.
