Michigan sees increase in quitters

Michigan's tobacco cessation program has seen an immediate and sustained increase in current tobacco users seeking help quitting after their statewide smoke-free air law, as reported by the Detroit Press.


Wisconsin can expect to see similar numbers reported from residents utitlizing the WI Tobacco Quit Line. Unfortunately, the Quit Line's funding was drastically cut two years ago, so the services that people need to help the quit are less available.
