What We Do
QuitlineNC provides free cessation services to any North Carolina resident who needs help quitting commercial tobacco use, which includes all tobacco products offered for sale, not tobacco used for sacred and traditional ceremonies by many American Indian tribes and communities. Quit Coaching is available in different forms, which can be used separately or together, to help any tobacco user give up tobacco. OCHD will establish agreements with healthcare providers and community partners serving Historically Marginally Populations (HMPs) to refer individuals to QuitlineNC for tobacco cessation.
Who We Serve
Adults who use tobacco products.
How We Impact
By improving QuitlineNC referral networks, healthcare providers and community partners serving HMPs across Onslow County will be able to refer more patients for tobacco cessation services. This will ensure historically marginalized populations have equitable access to resources to reduce tobacco use, especially among high-risk populations.
