What is BABY & ME - Tobacco Free Program ^TM

The BABY & ME – Tobacco-Free ^TM is a FREE program to help pregnant women quit smoking during pregnancy and stay quit after the baby is born.

How Does the Program Work?

A pregnant woman will attend four prenatal sessions to receive support and education to quit smoking before their due date. After the baby is born, the participant will return each month until the baby is six months old for support to stay tobacco free. The participant can receive up to $200 in gift cards for participating and completing the entire program. Diaper gift cards can be redeemed for any brand or size of diapers or wipes at local Walmart stores.

Who Can Enroll?
