There are many ways to quit smoking. There is a free 24-hour smokers’ helpline called Quit Now by phone at 1-877-455-2233 or online at: www.quitnow.ca. All of these community resources are at the clinics website at: www.CISIC.ca (which includes the free Quit Smoking movie).

Sooke now has a smoking cessation classroom program at the Integrated Health Network (IHN) Sooke Road Office (next to the Sooke News Mirror office).
