“Freedom from Smoking”, the leading smoking cessation program in the United States for over 25 years, shows participants how to quit smoking for good in a supportive setting.
Participants meet weekly in small groups so everyone attending gets personal attention.
No two smokers are alike; the program helps everyone create their own quit plan. Because support of others is important while quitting, participating with a group who understands the challenges helps at a time when support is most needed.
You’ll be more successful at quitting smoking by being with other people who have decided to get healthy for summer.
The Lakeport classes will take place Thursdays at Lake Family Resource Center, 896 Lakeport Blvd., from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The Clearlake classes will take place Tuesdays at Lake Family Resource Center, 14671 Olympic Drive, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Both programs run seven weeks, with two classes during “Quit Week.”
The program is FREE and includes all program materials and refreshments.
For more information and to register for the classes call Joy Swetnam, Lake Family Resource Center, at 707-262-1611 or email
