In preparation for the American Cancer Society’s Great American Smokeout – an annual event during which smokers are encouraged to make a plan to quit or plan in advance and then quit smoking on that day – the Coastal Health District’s Chronic Disease Prevention Program will offer three free smoking cessation classes.
