What to Expect When I Call When you call the Wisconsin Tobacco Quit Line, you’ll speak with a Quit Line coach who will help you develop a plan that's right for you. They’ll ask you several questions, such as how much you smoke or chew, what motivates you to quit and when you want to quit. Research shows it’s often helpful to set a quit date a few days or weeks in the future, rather than trying to do so right away. This will allow you the time to fully prepare for quitting. Your Quit Line coach will help you prepare, set a quit date and give you tips on how to avoid a relapse. He or she will tailor the service to your needs. Quit Line coaches also have information on: Medications to help smokers quit, the benefits of quitting and local resources in your area. They’ll send you a free quit kit in the mail and offer to arrange to have coaches call you to follow up with more assistance. And you can call them back seven days a week for support, coaching or specific advice. Our Quit Line coaches have extensive training in telephone coaching. Many are former smokers who know what it's like to quit tobacco use. All have college degrees in health education or psychology. Many have master’s degrees in these fields. Call 1-800-QUIT-NOW to get started, or click on the Click to Call button in the upper-right corner of this screen to have a coach call you. When you're ready to quit, we're ready to help.
