1-800-QUIT-NOW is a national router number which accepts callers from throughout the nation, seamlessly directing them to the appropriate state quitline. In an effort to promote this valuable resource, the Smoking Cessation Leadership Center has developed a small, plastic card the size of a credit card to help promote the new national quitline, 1-800-QUIT-NOW. If there is no state-run quitline, the call goes to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) quitline. By the end of the year, every state will be able to offer smokers this valuable service.
Quitlines are toll-free telephone centers staffed by trained cessation experts. For clinicians, they provide an easy, fast, and effective way to help smokers quit. By simply identifying smokers, advising them to quit, and sending them to a free telephone service, clinicians can save thousands of lives.
If you are interested in purchasing QUIT NOW cards, please fill out the QUIT NOW card order form and submit your request online. The Smoking Cessation Leadership is a non-profit organization. 100% of the cost is used to cover the printing and shipping expenses of your order.
By combining printing orders of these cards, the cost-per-card decreases. As a service of the Smoking Cessation Leadership Center, we have coordinated several large orders over the past year resulting in a lowered rate of .21 per card which includes shipping and handling. Please allow 5-6 weeks for delivery.
