The Hawaii Tobacco Quitline is a FREE, confidential and convenient telephone service for anyone who wants to quit smoking.
The Hawaii call center is open Monday - Sunday from 3 a.m. - 9 p.m.
Research shows that people who get support while they’re quitting are much more likely to quit successfully. Only about 5% are able to quit “cold turkey.”
Quit Coaches have bachelor’s degrees in health education, counseling or a related field, are ex-smokers with two years of abstinence or non-smokers, and have previous experience counseling for behavior change. Quit Coaches have gone through intensive cultural competency training and are well prepared to provide culturally-sensitive and culturally-appropriate tobacco treatment services to the residents of Hawaii.
All services of the Hawaii Tobacco Quitline are provided by Free & Clear, Inc., the nationally recognized leader in evidence-based, tested and validated tobacco treatment programs.
Since its inception in July 2005, the Quitline has helped more than 12,000 tobacco users who wanted to live tobacco-free.
The Hawaii Tobacco Quitline is paid for by the Hawaii Tobacco Prevention & Control Trust Fund using funds from a settlement with the tobacco industry.
