Free Quit Smoking Groups Begin this Month
It’s never too late to quit smoking. Within 20 minutes of the last cigarette, the body goes through a series of positive changes to improve health that will continue for years to come.
The NSU Area Health Education Centers (AHEC) Program and the Healthy Lifestyles Guided Self-Change Program offer group and individual programs designed to motivate and help smokers prepare to quit, select a quit date, and learn strategies and skills to quit and stay smoke-free, even in difficult situations.
The Quit Smoking Now program is FREE for NSU employees, students, and immediate family members. Participants will also receive a FREE 6-week supply of non-prescription Nicotine Replacement Therapy (gum, patches) while supplies last.
Quit Smoking Now groups meet for 90 minutes weekly for 6 weeks. Groups meet from 6 – 7:30 p.m. Two new groups are forming now:
- Wednesdays, Apr. 14 through May 19
- Mondays, Apr. 19 through May 24
