Smoking is the leading cause of preventable illness and death in the United States. Quitting smoking can lengthen lives and improve health.
Medical specialists point out that it is never too late to kick the habit.
The primary goal of the program is to help participants understand the nature of addiction to nicotine and to learn effective ways to control the addiction. Other goals of the program are ongoing support and encouragement to help participants stick to their commitment to quit. The program is provided to JLab staff at no cost to the Lab or the staff member. For more information about the smoking cessation program, call Ruben Pedroza, HR special projects administrator, ext.
