Mental health is a growing concern for our community, and Tobacco Free Lancaster County (TFLC, TobaccoFreeLancasterCounty.org) wants to help wellness professionals and business leaders through an upcoming learning opportunity in August.
Many people think of tobacco use as a stress reliever, which can make them hesitant to encourage or support someone in a quit attempt. Knowing the right words to say or what to do adds to the challenge.
TFLC is hosting a 30-minute virtual lunch and learn webinar on Wednesday, August 3 from 11:30 a.m. to noon. The webinar will be sharing the actual relationship between mental health and tobacco use and tips on how to create a supportive employee experience. The expert panel will share lived experiences and evidence-based advice. Participants will get an introduction to tobacco cessation, gain practical tips that can be used right away, and learn how Tobacco Free Lancaster County staff can help. The webinar is free and will be recorded, but you must register by scanning the QR code above to receive links.
Funding for Tobacco Free Lancaster County is provided by the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services/Tobacco Free Nebraska Program as a result of the Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement. Visit TobaccoFreeLancasterCounty.org to find great resources and to learn more.
