Overview
The Daviess County Health Department offers smoking cessation classes for pregnant women. These classes offer smoking cessation tools and accountability to participants to assist with tobacco cessation.
The goal of the program is to improve the health outcomes of these mothers as well as improve the health of infants. Diaper vouchers and other free incentives are given to women who are successful in this program.
