Freshstart
Smoke Cessation Program
Sponsored by



and
Start a new life
without
cigarettes!
2010 Schedule
Freshstart is the American Cancer Society's
quit-smoking program. It consists of four one and one
half hour sessions held during a four week period. All
of the methods and activities contain the most effective
elements for success. The single most important
element is YOU - and your dedication to fight the
addiction to nicotine that makes you want to smoke.
How is Freshstart Unique?
  • Freshstart is designed for you, the adult
    smoker - no gimmicks, meaningless
    group activities, or busy work.
  • Freshstart makes maximum use of the
    smoker's time. The format is
    convenient for most people's
    schedules, even in the workplace.
  • While Freshstart uses group interaction
    to support quitting goals, individual
    situations are given more attention than
    group process.
  • Quitting smoking quickly is the main
    goal of Freshstart, maintained by
    techniques and support to keep a
    smoker off cigarettes.
