The mission of the Network is to help increase the capacity in every state to establish effective, sustainable, and affordable cessation services to help tobacco users quit and stay quit. We seek to do this by linking state and national cessation leaders together to share information, resources and strategies, thereby enabling programs in each state to become more comprehensive and successful.
