The Be A Quitter project is a collaborative effort between the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and University of Illinois Extension. The project is designed to allow Illinois businesses the opportunity to provide their employees a proven tobacco cessation program, all at no cost to the business or its employees.

For more specific details about the project, including how you or your business can participate, please see our pages for Businesses and for Employees.

The Be A Quitter project is affiliated with the Illinois United initiative. Illinois United is designed to provide a digital home for translational research focused on the health and well-being of families throughout the state of Illinois.

The project is led by Dr. Allen Barton, an Assistant Professor and Extension Specialist in Human Development & Family Studies at the University of Illinois.
