Description

The Free four-week Group Quit program provides participants with relevant education and support in a group setting. Being part of a support system can really make a difference in a path to quitting tobacco. Each participant is given a Quit Kit including a participant workbook, motivational materials, resources, and other tools. A trained Tobacco Treatment Specialist facilitates the class to assist participants in their transition into a life without tobacco. Topics that are addressed during the program include: • Why do you use tobacco? • The benefits of quitting • Identifying triggers & how to handle them • Stress management • How to cope with withdrawal from nicotine • Selecting a quit date • Detailed description of available nicotine replacement therapies (NRTs) • How to avoid “slips” and “relapses” This free two-hour session allows participants to get the essential information on benefits of quitting, a workbook to help develop and implement a quit plan and receive a four (4) week supply of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (patch, lozenge, or gum). Participants may be eligible to receive 2 to 4 weeks of FREE quit aids like nicotine patches, gum, or lozenges, if medically appropriate and 18 years of age or older, to help them become tobacco free. The curriculum and materials for both programs are relevant to all types of tobacco (i.e., cigarettes, snus, chew, cigars, and electronic nicotine delivery products).
