Early screening can mean the difference between life and loss.

Today marks the end of an era. After nearly 21 years of dedicated service to Louisiana’s to***co users, Deborah “Debby” Durapau finally QUIT… working! For good!

Since November 15, 2004, Debby has shown deep compassion for individuals trying to quit to***co, encouraging them to start with simple changes and believing in them when they didn’t believe in themselves. She’s touched countless lives and helped so many people on their journey to better health.

Thank you, Debby, for sharing your wisdom, friendship, and love with the To***co Control Initiative team. Work won’t be the same without you, but we’re cheering you on as you step into this next chapter.

Enjoy your retirement—you’ve earned it, and more importantly, you DESERVE it! 💖
