The Smokers Quitline is a free service that provides New Yorkers with help when they are ready to stop smoking.
The Smokers Quitline is staffed by information specialists who are specially trained to provide information and consultation on a variety of cessation topics, such as stop smoking medications, withdrawal symptoms and stop smoking programs.
Callers can request Break Loose, a self-help booklet, and a listing of smoking cessation programs in their region.

The Smokers Quitline also provides tobacco-related services to a variety of other callers, including friends and family of smokers, health educators, businesses, parents, and students who are looking for information.
All services of the Quitline are free and confidential.
