Services:
Group Counseling ( Open to Adults )
"You Can Stop by Starting with Us" Program sessions are offered at the health centre periodically


Kicking the Nic Addiction 2008 ( Open to All )
This incentive-based campaign aims to get people to sign a pledge. They receive resources, a tool kit and other supports such as follow-up calls, referrals to the Smokers' Helpline, special events and workplace-based supports as desired.


Public Awareness Campaigns ( Open to All )
Health workshops targeting youth all contain an anti-smoking message to prevent the onset of smoking. All events are smoke free.

A smoke-free policy on Health Clinic grounds is being implemented in colaboration with LGH. The TC Committee is working to expand this policy to other SIFN work places and buildings.


Referrals ( Open to All )
Referrals are provided to the SHL when appropriate by LGH nurses and physicians.
