Resources available to help Wisconsinites break free of nicotine addiction

Tobacco contributes to 8,000 deaths annually in Wisconsin. Around 20% of Wisconsinites use tobacco, with Truth Initiative offering support for those aiming to quit in 2026. "You Got This Day" on Jan. 9 promotes quitting resources, including the research-driven EX Program in partnership with the Mayo Clinic. Vaping, prevalent among youth, is as harmful as smoking. Only 3-5% succeed in quitting cold turkey, but using the EX Program can increase success rates by 40%. Two-thirds of 18-24-year-olds who smoke or vape plan to quit this year. The EX Program offers a free, anonymous digital quitting program.
