Quitting Conversations: Accessing the Maine QuitLink. Via Zoom. Join us as we discuss tobacco dependence, how to support tobacco users looking to quit, and the free resources that are available to Mainers. With tobacco use continuing to be the leading cause of preventable disease and death in the world, 7 out of 10 smokers report wanting to quit. But what resources do they have? And how do they get connected?

In this program, attendees will learn about tobacco dependence, the Maine QuitLink and how to use it, and how to engage individuals in conversation about their tobacco use.

The Maine QuitLink is free, confidential, and evidence-based. It offers both tobacco counseling and Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) medication at no cost to Maine Residents. Those interested will receive a certificate of participation. This program is presented in partnership with Portland Public Health.

Please register for this event at the Baxter Library website. Once you have registered, a Zoom link for the program will be sent to the email address you provide.
