The Muskogee Turning Point Coalition is encouraging business, churches, civic organizations and schools to send a representative to the Freedom From Smoking Facilitator Training on Thursday and Friday. This training will prepare participants to lead stop smoking groups in their work, church or community setting. The free training is sponsored by the Muskogee County Health Department and the coalition. Facilitators must be tobacco free for a minimum of six months.
In addition, the Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline provides free, personalized assistance. Callers enrolled in the “Free & Clear” program work with the same “quit coach” throughout the process. During a series of up to five telephone sessions, the specialists assist callers in developing and working through a quit plan.
Information 683-0321.
