Health Commissioner Carol Cowan said the East Liverpool City Fire Department and East Liverpool City Hospital are among members of the task force, which conducted a focus group to determine how to promote smoking cessation. Several firefighters were in the midst of kicking the habit and told the task force having cessation help available is imperative. The task force has a preventive phase and a cessation phase, including youth-led tobacco teams to prevent starting the habit, a “quit line” and cessation classes, with contact numbers on the billboard, which was donated and installed by Heritage Thermal Services.
