The American Lung Association (ALA) is offering a free one-year membership to Freedom from Smoking Plus (FFS Plus). This interactive online program works on desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones and includes telephone, chat, and email support.

Freedom from Smoking Plus assesses your readiness to quit and guides you through a three-part process from getting ready to quit, to quit day, and finally, staying smoke free. There are online tips and tools to keep you on track as well as access to ALA tobacco cessation counselors. You may also visit the Freedom from Smoking online community to interact with others who are working to break their tobacco addiction.

To join this program, click on the link: bit.ly/ALAFFSPLUS. Users can set up a profile to begin the self-paced, nine-module course.  FFS Plus includes 12 months of continuous support.

FFS Plus normally costs $99.95 but the ALA is offering it at no cost for a limited time. So, if you are a tobacco user who is contemplating quitting, now is the time to join.

Should you have any questions, please contact the American Lung Association’s National Tobacco Team at freedomfromsmoking@lung.org.
