The American Lung Association’s Freedom From Smoking® program is for nicotine users who are ready to quit. Because most people already know that smoking, vaping, chewing and pouches are bad for their health, the program focuses almost exclusively on how to quit, not why to quit.
The Freedom From Smoking® Group Clinic will give you the knowledge and tools to overcome your nicotine addiction and quit using for good so you can enjoy better health, extra money in your pocket and many other rewards.
Over the course of eight sessions led by a facilitator, clinic participants work through the quitting process together. Eight weeks may sound like a lot of time but research has proven that the more time a nicotine user spends in a supportive situation while trying to quit, the more likely they are to succeed. People who use the Freedom From Smoking Group Clinic are six times more likely to be nicotine-free one year later than those who try to quit on their own.
