Tobacco Cessation Program
Are you ready to quit? Join our FREE group support sessions for tobacco users!
Giving up tobacco has countless benefits for your health and overall quality of life, but we know it’s not easy. Our 8-week “Puffer Snuffers” class is designed to help you stop smoking at a pace that’s right for you. Sessions last for approximately an hour, and snacks are provided. Virtual check-ins are an option after your first visit. Medications (when prescribed) and other smoking cessation aids are available to those who qualify.
