Quitting smoking can be hard for anyone who smokes, including cancer survivors. In a recent blog post, Dr. Lisa Richardson, director of CDC’s Division of Cancer Prevention and Control and Dr. Corinne Graffunder, director of CDC's Office on Smoking and Health, team-up to spread the message that free tools and resources are available to help cancer survivors quit smoking for good. Smoking during and after cancer treatment can make it more likely for cancer to come back or for a survivor to get a new cancer related to smoking. Support from family, friends, and caregivers is important in helping cancer survivors quit smoking. The blog provides information about resources and tools from CDC’s Tips From Former Smokers ® website such as a quitline, texting program, and a mobile app that can help make quitting possible
