The Great American Spit Out Encourages Chewers To Quit

A disturbing trend has been noted among state high school students by the Wyoming Department of Health. Kim Deti says they are seeing continuing high rates of smokeless tobacco use among state high school students.






Tomorrow is the Great American Spit Out. Deiti says if you join in and stay tobacco-free for 24 hours, it just might be the first day of the rest of your life without smokeless tobacco controlling your every action. 






The Wyoming Quit Tobacco Program, which is part of the department’s Public Health Division, offers significant financial assistance to help cover the costs of cessation medications and free supportive services such as counseling. Call 1-800-QUIT-NOW or log on to wy.quitnet.com  to enroll. People who call or log on during February will be entered to win a $200 gas card.
