Last Thursday was the American Cancer Society's Great American Smokeout, where smokers from across the country are invited to quit for the day...and perhaps it will be their frst step tward a smoke-free life. But Thursday isn't the only day to quit.
Quitting smoking is not easy, but it can be done. To have the best chance of quitting successfully, you need to know what you're up against, what your options are, and where to go for help. The American Cancer Society offers many resources to aid you in your efforts to quit smoking.
If you are not a smoker, you can take this day to help loved ones make a "quit-attempt." You can also help to advocate for clean indoor air policies in your local community. For advocacy information, visit acscan.org.
