Each 8-week class covers important topics such as: medications that can help you stop smoking, lifestyle changes that make quitting easier, managing stress, avoiding weight gain, staying smoke free, and more.

All classes meet on Thursdays, once a week for eight weeks. The next session runs from Jan. 7 to Feb. 25, from 10 a.m. to noon in the Community Room at the Lourdes Center for Family Health, 303 Main St., Binghamton.

The cost for the 8-week class is $25 and those who complete the class will be refunded their fee.
