STOP Workshops
STOP Workshops Offer Free Counselling and NRT
In partnership with the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), the health unit offers free three-hour STOP workshops around the region.
Each workshop includes a free supply of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) in the form of the patch.
Public health nurses will provide information on the proper use of the NRT as well as counselling and
tips to support your quit attempt
.
Pre-registration is required to attend a workshop by calling Health Connection at 705-721-7520 or 1-877-721-7520.
The exact location of the workshops will be supplied upon registration.
New workshops will be added as the supply of NRT is made available from CAMH. For more information about the CAMH STOP Study Program, click
