In an effort to reduce tobacco use in Rutland County, we connect tobacco prevention and quit partners with schools and community organizations. Together we work to address access to tobacco products, establish tobacco free worksites and college campuses and reduce exposure to secondhand smoke. Rutland Local Health Office staff have provided support and technical assistance to the Rutland Regional Medical Center and the Community Health Centers of the Rutland Region as they prepare to adopt tobacco free policies on their grounds and campuses.
Smoking rates in Vermont are declining, but they remain higher in some groups. Learn more about how we provide services and supports to those with the highest rates of smoking and tobacco use.
