LAKE COUNTY – Lake Family Resource Center is offering the American Lung Association “Freedom from Smoking” tobacco cessation program beginning Feb. 12 in Clearlake and on Feb. 23 in Kelseyville.

“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.

Participants meet weekly in small groups so everyone attending gets personal attention.

No two smokers are alike; the program helps everyone create their own quit plan. Because support of others is important while quitting, participating with a group who understands the challenges helps at a time when support is most needed.

Spring is a great time to make changes in your life and you’ll be more successful at quitting smoking by being with other people who have decided to quit smoking, too.

The Clearlake classes will take place at LakeFRC, 14264 Austin Drive (across from Burns Valley School), from 10 a.m. to noon.

The Kelseyville classes will take place at LakeFRC, 4325 Main St., from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Both programs run seven weeks, with two classes during “Quit Week.”

The program is FREE and includes all program materials and refreshments.
