Great American Smokeout Set for Nov. 16

The American Cancer Society marks the Great American Smokeout on the third Thursday of November each year. Smokers are encouraged to use the date to come up with a plan to quit, or to plan in advance to quit smoking that day.

By quitting, smokers will take an important step towards a healthier life, a step that can lead to reducing cancer and other health risks.
