Description:NEW HAMPSHIRE KEY FACTS In 2015, 30.3% of New Hampshire high school youth reported currently using any tobacco product, including e-cigarettes. Among New Hampshire high school youth, 9.3% reported currently smoking cigarettes. PUBLIC HEALTH RESPONSE TO TOBACCO USE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE People are more likely to quit smoking successfully if they have access to FDA-approved cessation medications and counseling. New Hampshire works to find opportunities to increase demand for quitting through increased access, availability, and awareness of tools that help smokers quit. In recent years, the state has developed a campaign that has utilized CDC’s Tips From Former Smokers™ (Tips)™ campaign materials and provided free nicotine replacement therapy for callers to the state’s quitline. The campaigns are designed to occur around the New Year, when 3 out of 5 current smokers in New Hampshire will be making New Year’s resolutions to quit.
