Gallaudet University Student Health Services

Gallaudet's medical center provides medical care, health awareness and preventive medicine and also has adopted a smoke-free Gallaudet mission.  The below section is copied from their official page, click here to visit their full page.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The mission of Smoke-Free at Gallaudet is to encourage a positive health environment for everyone. We will strive to achieve this mission by:
  • Convincing members of the university community that tobacco poses a serious health hazard for both smokers and non-smokers.
  • Preventing future generations of Gallaudet University students, faculty, and staff from becoming addicted to nicotine.
  • Helping current smokers who have decided to quit, and giving them the tools to enable them to stop smoking.
  • Throughout the year, the Student Health Service holds various smoke-free awareness events. 
The following items are available at these events or at the Student Health Service:
  • Pamphlets
  • Quit kits
  • Fact sheets
  • Promotional items designed to help smokers quit
