"PAXForms™ by PAXIS Institute was a key component of the Wyoming strategy to meet its Synar goals. PAXForms™ combined with our overall strategy to take us from 55% buy rate to around a 10% buy rate. The on-line data will provide us with the ability to achieve many of our longer-term tobacco control goals for the whole state."
-Dr. Diane Galloway, Former Administrator, Wyoming Department of Health, Substance Abuse Division
