OXFORD - In recognition of the Great American Smokeout, Griffin Health will host a virtual open house for its free smoking cessation program Nov. 17 from noon-1 p.m.
Participants will learn about “That’s It – Learn to Quit,” Griffin’s four-week smoking cessation program that offers free education, advice and support to help individuals prepare to quit smoking.
Through group discussion and interactive activities, participants learn how to develop a quit plan that addresses their personal behaviors and habits. Strategies to manage nicotine withdrawal, behaviors, triggers, and urges are discussed as well as weight control and stress management.
To register for the open house, call 203-732-1369. The next session of "That’s It – Learn to Quit" is set for Mondays, Nov. 21 and 28, and Dec. 5 and 12 at 4:30 p.m. at The Griffin Center for Healthy Living, Quarry Walk, 300 Oxford Road.
Nov. 17, 2022 is the Great American Smokeout. This annual observance is organized by the American Cancer Society on the third Thursday of November to encourage smokers to use the date to make a plan to quit, or to plan in advance and quit smoking that day.
