Adult Smoking Cessation Program
This program is designed to help smokers gain control over their addiction. The clinic format encourages participants to work on the process and problems of quitting, set quit dates, manage stress with healthy methods, discuss medications, and provides help with diet and exercise while quitting.
Tobacco cessation classes are held one night a week for five weeks. To find specific dates and times call (208) 737-5968 or email the coordinator.
Teen Smoking Cessation and Information Program
This is a 5-week quit nicotine addiction program offered to teens. The classes help youth recognize habits and triggers, develop coping skills, and set and commit to quit dates.
SCPHD also offers a two-day alternative to suspension class — an in-depth tobacco and vaping education class that helps teens develop coping skills, teaches effective steps to quit, and helps teens understand how living without nicotine will impact their future.
Prenatal Smoking Cessation
This program is for pregnant women enrolled in the SCPHD Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program. These classes are designed to provide tobacco cessation services to women throughout their pregnancies during their WIC appointments.
