Smoking Cessation and Lung Cancer Resources

Lung cancer screening is not meant to replace quitting smoking. Whether or not you decide to be screened, quitting smoking is the most important thing you can do to lower your risk of lung cancer and other tobacco-related illnesses. If you have already quit, remaining a former smoker will continue to lower your risk of lung cancer and other tobacco-related illnesses year after year.

Becoming a former smoker is a process that can take time and a lot of effort, but with the right tools and support you can do it! The resources below can help you become a former smoker and if you have already quit, help you stay a former smoker.
