It is so rewarding to be a non-smoker. I feel like we've been deceived, not really knowing what cigarettes do to our body. I feel like I have been set free and this is a WONDERFUL thing!
- Margie C. | smoked 32 years; quit 2008
After taking the Quit Smoking Now class, I feel better, breathe better, and for the first time in my life I am actually happy and feel a sense of freedom.
- Kim H. | smoked 23 years; quit 2008
I joined the class reluctantly. But with the support of the group, Chantix, and my willingness to try to quit one more time maybe I could do it. And I did it!

Each year, 35 million people want to quit smoking. If you are one of those people, it is important to know that the Quit Smoking Now program is here to help.
Offered by Northeast Florida AHEC, Quit Smoking Now provides you with the support, guidance and resources to help you quit. This six week program could be all it takes for you to become tobacco free!

- Coping with anger, sleep problems, and cravings, which are common for those who quit smoking
- Managing stress
- How physical activity and healthy food choices can make quitting smoking easier
- How to prevent relapse (taking up smoking again)
