Tobacco Prevention & Cessation

Smoking Prevention and Cessation

Somerset County WIC enrollees are the target population for the program. Through an agreement with Somerset Health Services, the program assesses the past and present tobacco use by WIC participants and family members. Trained counselors then work with the women, giving them the skills they need to eliminate smoking and reduce their children’s exposure to second-hand smoke.

Tobacco Prevention and Cessation

A program to prevent tobacco use among youth, promote smoking cessation among youth and adults, protect non-smokers from environmental tobacco smoke and eliminate tobacco-related health disparities. The Council administers the program, which is coordinated through the Pennsylvania Department of Health, in the 25 counties of the north and south central health districts.
