• Description:
  Quitting smoking is the most important thing individuals can do to protect their health. Tobacco use remains the leading cause of preventable disease, disability, and death in the United States, and the changing landscape of tobacco use demands innovation to expand and improve efforts to help people quit.
  
  To bring attention to the critical role of cessation as part of a comprehensive tobacco prevention and control approach, CDC’s Office on Smoking and Health (OSH) has declared 2019 the Year of Cessation.
  
  The Year of Cessation emphasizes the importance of quitting tobacco and highlights resources and initiatives that support people in quitting. Throughout 2019, OSH will bring greater attention to our collective tobacco cessation efforts. The Year of Cessation focuses on different aspects of cessation policy, practice, and treatment through a quarterly framework, which begins and ends with a focus on helping people who use tobacco to quit.
