Course Description: If you want to quit smoking, vaping, dipping, or chewing, then this 2-session, 5-hour course is for you.
Tobacco treatment specialists trained through the Mayo Clinic will provide you with the necessary tools to tackle nicotine cravings and prepare you for a Quit Date. Studies have shown that working with a tobacco treatment specialist doubles your chances of stopping smoking.
This class is a joint-initiative with Tobacco Free Amarillo, so it is FREE. In addition, if you are over 18, you may be eligible to receive a free starter supply of nicotine replacement therapy products (patches, gum, lozenges). Additional post-course support will be discussed to help you succeed at quitting and remaining tobacco-free. A certificate will be provided upon completion of the course.
This program can help those who just need a little extra push, as well as those who have almost given up – and everyone in between.
People who quit using tobacco save money, and feel healthier and more in control. You CAN succeed, and we can help.
The cost for this course is $25 FREE. Class transfers must be requested at least one day prior to the start of class. After this period, students will be required to register and pay for another class.
Students are required to register and pay prior to the first class. It is recommended that students register as early as possible, because classes reach maximum enrollment quickly.
