Quit Smoking Today With “The Butt Stops Here” Program

SPHP offers the 7-week

Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death, killing 25,500 New Yorkers and 430,000 Americans every year. Quitting is the single best thing a smoker can do to improve their health and reduce their risk of dying from a smoking-related illness.

To help individuals quit smoking, St. Peter’s Health Partners offers the award-winning The Butt Stops Here program.

The program consists of seven 1-hour sessions and includes a workbook and two weeks of nicotine patches or gum. The group-supported program meets weekly and is led by a St. Peter’s Health Partners facilitator. The cost is $45, or $20 for Medicaid participants. For CDPHP participants the cost is free.

The Butt Stops Here will be offered at:

St. Mary’s Hospital
1300 Massachusetts Ave. in Troy, Education Rooms A and B
Meets from 6-7 p.m. on Tuesdays, August 2 – September 13
