Team ACT: Allies in Conquering Tobacco

Team ACT is one of nineteen cessation centers under the New York State Tobacco Control Program.  We cover Broome, Tioga, Chenango, Tompkins and Cortland counties.  It is our mission to provide free trainings to providers in the treatment of tobacco dependence.  We educate providers on the evidenced-based clinical practice guidelines. We offer our assistance in helping healthcare systems and providers in implementing systems change to follow the clinical practice guidelines.

We also offer free and confidential telephone counseling calls, individualized quit plans and a smoking cessation manual.  Enrolling in our program increases a successful quit.  We offer weight management tips and relapse prevention techniques.
