KICK IT CALIFORNIA & YVAPE
The original helpline began in 1992 for smoking cessation, and has since been staffed by caring, trained professionals. Clinical trials have shown that the program's approach can double a smoker's chance of quitting for good. In 2019, we launched a vaping-specific coaching protocol.
YVAPE is a new program but it is run by the same dedicated staff from Kick It California who apply strategies gained from many years of experience helping teens stop using tobacco products.
