BUFFALO, NY — The New York State Smokers’ Quitline is joining with families across New York State to honor and express appreciation for dads on this Father’s Day. To help you celebrate this special occasion, the Quitline, which is based at Roswell Park Cancer Institute (RPCI), is providing New Yorkers with access to a free e-card that they can send to congratulate those dads who have stopped smoking, and a different card to send to urge dads who are still struggling to keep trying to quit smoking.
The two free e-cards can be accessed at http://www.nysmokefree.com — click on the “Encouraging DADS to Quit Smoking” graphic to view and send them.
If your dad still smokes, tell him to contact the New York State Smokers’ Quitline, 1-866-NY-QUITS (1-866-697-8487), or visit nysmokefree.com for free coaching tips for quitting and a starter kit of nicotine patches or gum. Most smokers qualify for the free two-week starter kit of nicotine patches or gum. Call hours are Monday through Thursday 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. and Friday through Sunday 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. For more information, visit RPCI’s website at http://www.roswellpark.org, call 1-877-ASK-RPCI (1-877-275-7724) or email askrpci@roswellpark.org.
