Are you a
smoker? Do you want to quit smoking?
Most smokers have, at some point,
thought about quitting smoking. In fact many smokers
think about quitting every time they light up a
cigarette.
There are many reasons smokers want to quit. Personal
health is often at the top of the list, however,
concerns regarding the health of family members
because of second hand smoke also play a role in
the desire to quit. There are factors such as how
much money cigarettes cost today, not being able
to smoke in public places any longer, and how the
smell of smoke lingers on clothes, hair, and other
personal items.
It doesn’t matter if one of these
reasons applies to you or if they all do – we want
to help you quit!
University Health
Services - Office of Health Promotion is offering
FREE smoking cessation programs to the Kent State
University faculty, staff and student community.
Through a grant with the Portage
County Tobacco Prevention Coalition (PCTPC) and
the Ohio Tobacco Prevention Foundation we are able
to offer a comprehensive smoking cessation program
that addresses individual needs and techniques for
a successful and healthful life-style change.
