FreshStart Smoking Treatment Class
This 6 week class begins on June 14 @ 2 p.m.
The FreshStart program is designed to help smokers quit smoking and develop coping skills to combat the psychological and physical side effects of smoking treatment. This straightforward, upbeat program is intended to stress the positives of the smoking treatment experience – the reasons to quit, the benefits of quitting – while honestly exploring the very real, unpleasant feelings that are a part of beating the addiction to nicotine and the habit of smoking.
Freshstart focuses on an active, pragmatic approach to quitting smoking with each participant directing his or her own efforts to quit. Freshstart emphasizes each member’s personal responsibility for their success.
• Sessions run approximately 1 hour per week and will be individualized to meet the needs of the client.
• Services provided in a group setting either in person or via ZOOM; individual sessions available as necessary.
• Explanation of Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRT).
• Provide connection to Quit Kits(client must sign up to get a call from Maine Tobacco Hotline).
• Help setting up a support system.
This Program is facilitated by Elaine Sipe an Aroostook County Action Program (ACAP) Community Educator.

The So. Aroostook Community Blood Drive on Fri, Dec. 18th still has open appointment slots. Now is the time to sign-up for an appointment to give the gift of life this holiday. Patients are needing life saving units of blood so they can experience 1 more holiday with family and friends. There is a need for health donors to come donate. This month’s blood drive is a great time to invite a friend or family member to join you in donating a life saving unit of blood. All blood donated is being tested for the Covid-19 Antibodies. Donors will receive their results in 7 to 10 days. If you have the Covid Antibodies, your plasma will be sent to hospitals treating Covid patients. Save up to 3 lives with your donation this month.
The need for blood is constant and only volunteer donors can fulfill that need for patients in our community. Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every 2 to 3 seconds and most of us will need blood in our lifetime.
Thank you for supporting the American Red Cross blood program!
Download the Red Cross Blood Donor App on the App Store, Google Play or text BLOODAPP to 90999. Schedule appointments, view your blood type and results of your mini-physical, and track your donations.
