MU Health Care Quit Tobacco Now Program

There is no denying tobacco use is one of the hardest habits to break, especially on your own. That’s why Ellis Fischel Cancer Center has a Quit Tobacco Now program to help tobacco users kick the habit for good

The program is completely free and open to anyone in the mid-Missouri area. 4-5 10 week class sessions offered each calendar year.

Quit Tobacco Now consists of five bi-weekly virtual classes held over the course of 10 week.. The class meets every other Tuesday, from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. to discuss a variety of topics, including the science behind addictions, quitting strategies, coping mechanisms and more. Each session will include a group discussion as well as an activity to help guide an overall quit plan. Participants can join via phone or video.

Throughout the entire program, participants will also have access to free nicotine replacement therapy products, such as patches, gum or lozenges.
