National Non-Smoking Week starts with you!

Interested in quitting smoking? This week is a great week to start!  National Non-Smoking Week starts Sunday, January 15 and runs until Saturday, January 21, 2023. This annual campaign stresses the importance of educating our children and youth by protecting them from starting cannabis, commercial tobacco, and vapour use. Also, with open and honest conversation throughout the week, individuals looking to quit or limit their use can plan with friends to improve their health.
