Free Smoking Cessation Program Available for Employees


Truman has taken an important step toward promoting a healthy working and learning environment by declaring the University will be tobacco-free beginning July 1, 2015. This includes cigarettes, smokeless tobacco and electronic nicotine delivery systems, or e-cigarettes.

Support is available for any employee who wishes to become tobacco-free. Mindy Aucutt in Human Resources has been trained as a smoking cessation coach and is willing to meet individually with employees. In concert with a personalized coaching/support program, nicotine replacement products, such as gum, lozenges and/or patches, as well as other helpful habit-reducing products including flavored chewing gums and toothpicks, can be provided.

The coaching sessions and the products are free of charge to employees. Anyone who believes they might benefit from these services can contact Aucutt at 660.785.4031 or maucutt@truman.edu to set up an appointment or to discuss a plan that might be helpful.
