Virtual Program

The Virtual Butt Stops Here program is a 7-week tobacco cessation program made possible through a collaboration of several community health partners. Participants will learn about nicotine addiction, nicotine replacement therapies, stress management and coping techniques, share experiences and goals, and utilize a private, online social support network to aid in their tobacco cessation journey. Unlike a traditional live, in-person series, this series will be run virtually via webinar that participants can log-in to on a smartphone, tablet or computer. All participants will receive program materials, log-in information and updates via email and a participant workbook and CD through the mail.
