Every November for the past 30 years, smokers from across the United States have had a chance to quit smoking by joining the American Cancer Society’s Great American Smokeout. This nationwide event helps to educate people about the hazards of tobacco and encourages smokers to quit for good. It’s also a day of celebration for young people who do not smoke or who have chosen to quit smoking. Many communities have local volunteers who support quitters, publicize the event, press for tougher laws to restrict tobacco use, and discourage teenagers from ever starting to smoke. To learn more about the American Cancer Society and collaborative efforts, or Smokeout activities in your community on Thursday, November 16, call toll-free 1-888-227-5445 and press 3, or 383-4701.
