Thinking of Quitting Smoking? Here is an Option You May Not Have Considered!

A couple weeks ago I had the pleasure of interviewing Norma Pomerleau from The Health District of Northern Larimer County about their "Step Free From Tobacco Program".  I don't even smoke and I wanted to sign up. (Seriously! They address more than just the tobacco addiction.)  They make quitting smoking much easier than you think!  It's much less expensive than you think too. You even get you get free nicotine patches, gum or lozenges.
