Become Tobacco Free

Get Practical Support and Encouragement to Help You Quit

Did you know that only 5% of smokers quit without any type of assistance?

You don't have to do it alone. Join the American Cancer Society Fresh Start Tobacco Cessation program for one-on-one cessation counseling.

FREE to all faculty, staff and students.
4 one-hour sessions provide guided counseling, support and encouragement from certified Fresh Start Facilitators.
Topics include understanding the addiction, planning to quit, coping mechanisms for cravings and dealing with withdrawal.
Participants will receive free Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) upon completion of the program. It is recommended to complete all 4 sessions within 4 weeks.

Contact Debbie or Kim to schedule your sessions.
