With many making resolutions to start the new year, the American Lung Association is offering resources for those looking to quit smoking.
A new report shows that around 15 percent of residents in the state use at least one tobacco or nicotine product.
The American Lung Association is offering a free lung helpline to help people quit smoking or using tobacco. There are also resources for employers to help their employees quit.
“In our state, 14.9% adults smoke and 17% of high school students use a tobacco product. We know that breaking the addiction to nicotine is extremely difficult. For most people, it takes multiple attempts to quit tobacco for good. Each quit attempt brings a person closer to reaching their goal,” Elizabeth Hensil, Director of Advocacy with the American Lung Association in Pennsylvania, said.
