Northeast Community College is offering another Freedom From Tobacco class starting in a few weeks.  The cost is $100 per person, but that fee will be waived for the first 15 students who register and complete the program. The class is 7 weeks long and meets every Monday beginning on March 24 2014. The time is 6:30-7:30 p.m.  in the Lifelong Learning Center on the Northeast campus in Norfolk.

The program emphasizes that quitting tobacco and maintaining abstinence is a learning process where individuals must learn to manage nicotine addiction, unlearn automatic behaviors of tobacco use and substitute healthy new alternatives.  Each participant receives a workbook that compliments the activities in class.  It is sponsored by the American Lung Associate and facilitated by Faith Regional Instructors.

If you have any questions please call Gretchen Hupp, the Northeast Student Health Nurse at 402-844-7176 or email her at [email protected].
