Smoking Cessation 

The Winnebago County Health Departments provides a variety of programs and opportunities to help people quit smoking.  Less than 1 in 5 Americans continue to smoke cigarettes, recognizing the fact that despite the numbers of smokers decreasing dramatically, tobacco use continues to be the country's number one  cause of preventable death. On average, smokers die 14 years earlier than non-smokers.  For those who continue to smoke, contact the WCHD Tobacco Programs Coordinator (listed below) to learn more about the help and support we can provide to help you quit smoking.
