Story Behind the Curve
QuitlineNC provides free cessation services to any North Carolina resident who needs help quitting commercial tobacco use, which includes all tobacco products offered for sale, not tobacco used for sacred and traditional ceremonies by many American Indian tribes and communities. Quit Coaching is available in different forms, which can be used separately or together, to help any tobacco user give up tobacco. Northampton County Health Department refers patients to Quitline to assist with tobacco cessation. During the COVID-19 pandemic, patient count was down in the clinic; therefore referalls were down.
