CESSATION SERVICES

Quitting smoking can be a difficult decision to make, especially on your own. TFL offers several statewide services to provide counseling and support to people who are ready to quit.

Louisiana Tobacco Quitline
The Tobacco Quitline at 1-800-QUIT-NOW provides free and confidential advice and support to Louisiana residents, ages 13 and older, who are ready to quit smoking.

Certified counseling is available in English and Spanish, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to help callers kick the habit and improve the quality of their lives.

Freedom from Smoking Clinics
Freedom from Smoking Clinics offer free, walk-in assistance to those who want to quit smoking and prefer a group face-to-face approach. For the Freedom from Smoking Clinic nearest you, call toll-free 1-800-586-4872 or visit myTFL.org .

The eight-session, five-week group program allows participants to track personal habits, develop coping strategies and practice in a supportive environment with others who are experiencing the same feelings and challenges. For many smokers – especially those who have tried to quit before – group support can make the difference in helping to stay smoke free.

Tobacco Control Initiative
The Tobacco Control Initiative (TCI) offers help to quit smoking for the patients of Louisiana’s public hospital system, their employees and the communities they serve.

These free or low-cost services include group support and medications proven to help defeat tobacco addictions. For more information about TCI, visit www.quit-to-live.org .
