Join the Great American Smokeout on Thursday, November 16, 2017
Human Resources, in partnership with Cigna HealthCare, supports your effort in the Great American Smokeout. Every year, on the third Thursday of November, smokers across the nation take part in the American Cancer Society Great American Smokeout. They may use the date to make a plan to quit, or plan in advance and then quit smoking that day. The Great American Smokeout event challenges people to stop using tobacco and helps people learn about the many tools they can use to help them quit. Watch for a communication coming from Human Resources inviting you to participate in the smokeout (whether you use tobacco or not).You may even win a prize!
