Great American Smokeout

November 19th could be your day!
Your day for what you might ask.
It can be your day to stop using tobacco.


November 19th is the day of the American Cancer Society's (ACS) Great American Smokeout. This is an annual event. It can be a day that you can set as your quit day, or, if you're not quite there yet, it can just be a day when you don't use tobacco. Just for one day. Quitting for a day is doable, and it's very empowering. Show yourself that you can do it for one day, and you just might convince yourself to make it permanent. The ACS provides free resources to the public to help kick the habit. There is a free quitline that you can call and you will be able to talk to a trained quit coach. It's 100% free and 100% confidential. They also provide tips and tools on their website to help individuals who want to quit. There's no time like right now, and the sooner you quit, the sooner you become the boss, not the tobacco!
