About the program
The Smoking Cessation Program is an eight-week, interactive program with a support-group setting led by clinicians. Sessions feature lectures, skill practices and counseling to help participants stop smoking for good.
Participants will meet with the tobacco treatment team in a small, supportive group environment, and will receive tips from ex-smokers who have successfully remained smoke-free.
