Lloydminster residents hoping to kick their smoking habits can access the tools and support needed to build a tobacco-free lifestyle with the help of QuitCore. The six-week program is free from Alberta Health Services. It is led by trained cessation professionals and teaches tobacco users how to develop a plan to quit that will work for them while providing strategies to address recovery symptoms, manage stress and, ultimately, prevent relapse.

The program also helps to build a support network by connecting participants with others trying to quit. The QuitCore program will be offered in the Border City from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Tuesdays from Sept. 18 to Oct. 30 at the Lloydminster Primary Care Network, #118 4402 52 Ave. There will be no session on Oct. 23.

Call toll-free 1-866-710-QUIT (7848) to register.
