LAKEPORT, Calif. – Lake Family Resource Center is once again offering the American Lung Association “Freedom from Smoking” tobacco cessation program beginning on Tuesday, May 3.

“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.

The classes are free to Lake County residents and are offered in Lakeport.

The Lakeport classes will take place at Lake Family Resource Center, 896 Lakeport Blvd.; the building is located at the left end of the bowling alley shopping center .

Classes will meet from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Participants meet weekly with a small group of people so everyone attending gets personal attention.

No two smokers are alike, so the program helps everyone create their own quit plan.

Because support of others is important while quitting, being with a group who understands the challenges of quitting helps at a time when support is most needed.

You can be smoke-free before the summer starts. Millions of people have already quit. You can, too. Lake Family Resource Center looks forward to helping you achieve your goals.
