View performance reporting at any time
See program performance with our transparent reports. We base our metrics on a “quit and satisfaction” survey. The quit rate counts individuals who have not used any form of tobacco over the last 30 days, which is the industry standard.
It really is beneficial to talk to somebody else. If I can smoke three to four packs of cigarettes a day and quit, anybody can do it.
– Michele from Laconia, New Hampshire
