Quitting tobacco isn't easy. Finding help should be. Tobacco Free Florida AHEC Cessation Program offers free tools and services to help you get started.
AHEC Cessation Program "Group Quit" is the in-person option of Tobacco Free Florida Quit Your Way services. Group Quit offers two programs: Option 1 - A 2-hour Group Quit session where participants learn how to develop a successful quit plan and set their own quit date. Option 2 - a support group that meet once a week for 4 weeks and cover a variety of topics including coping with withdrawal symptoms, managing addiction and preventing relapse. Up to 4-weeks of nicotine replacement therapy including patches, gum and lozenges are provided for FREE (while supplies last). Group counseling is an effective and critical component of any quit attempt and can double the success rate of quitting tobacco. Groups are held on USF Health campus and throughout Hillsborough County. This program covers all forms of tobacco. To register for a group in your community call 813-974-7889 and speak to a Tobacco Cessation Specialist.
