The Wabash County Health Department, along with the Illinois Tobacco Quitline, is sponsoring a program called “Break the Habit”. This program is designed to help people who want to quit smoking. When a tobacco user calls the Illinois Tobacco Quitline, they will be informed on the Break the Habit program. If the caller decides to participate, the quitline counselor contacts the health department staff regarding contact data, consultation content, and use of Nicotine Replacement Therapy or medication. The tobacco user can then receive Nicotine Replacement Therapy or a voucher for the prescription medication Chantix from the Wabash County Health Department Prevention Office. For more information, contact the Wabash County Health Department at 263-3873 or the Illinois Tobacco Quitline at 1-866-QUIT-YES
