We all have those long lists of goals we hope to reach—take a class, read a book, quit smoking…and sometimes it can be overwhelming! However, you are not alone in the race to accomplish everything on your “To Do” list, especially when it comes to ending tobacco use.
King County Employee Health and Well-Being is excited to partner with Quit For Life, a free tobacco cessation program to help King County employees and/or immediate family members (18 years or older) reach their goal of quitting tobacco once and for all.
