At The Breathing Association, our goal is to help everyone “breathe
easier.”
Founded in 1906 by Carrie Nelson Black, The Breathing Association has
a long history of educating and serving the community through prevention
and treatment of lung health disease and the promotion of better lung
health. Founded as The Columbus Tuberculosis Society, The Breathing Association
has expanded its scope of services as new lung health concerns have arisen.
Today, The Breathing Association provides support, breathing therapy,
tobacco cessation services, tobacco prevention programs, and health education
for people with asthma and chronic pulmonary lung disease. We support
those who meet 175% poverty guidelines with summer and winter energy assistance
and medical supplies through H.E.A.P. We also address the causes and irritants
of lung health disease by advocating for clean indoor air and clean outdoor
air.
To schedule a tobacco prevention program, to obtain lung health services
and support, to learn more about our tobacco cessation programs, to volunteer,
or to learn how you can help support our programs, please call The Breathing
Association at (614) 457-4570.
