The Vision
Quit Now Indiana is working to reduce the use of all commercial tobacco products in Indiana. The network of service programs is available to improve the health of Hoosiers and end exposure to tobacco and addiction.
OUR VALUES
All Hoosiers are affected by the disease and economic burden of tobacco use in Indiana. There are differences in the impact of these burdens across racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic groups, and these disparities must be recognized and addressed.
Quit Now Indiana and its network of partners apply sound science and best practices to support all programs through the following values:
Transparency – We are committed to honest and open communication.
Diversity and Inclusion – We embrace the uniqueness of each person, seek fairness and justice for all, and welcome multiple perspectives in our work.
Partnership and Collaboration – We can only accomplish our goals through strong partnerships and collaborative strategies.
Empathy – We have compassion for those suffering from tobacco addiction and exposure to commercial tobacco products.
Quit Now Indiana is part of the Indiana Department of Health, Indiana's tobacco control plan, and adheres to the values of the IDOH:
Health Equity – We place equity at the center of our work to ensure every Hoosier, regardless of individual characteristics historically linked to discrimination or exclusion, has access to social and physical supports needed to promote health from birth through the end of life.
Communication – We provide stakeholders and the public with correct and up-to-date scientific data and provide education.
Innovation – We continue to learn, research evidence-informed practices, advance our services, and be open to new methods, ideas, and products that help build and expand upon the services we provide.
Integrity – We are honest, trustworthy, and transparent. We uphold our standards and do the right things to achieve the best public health and safety outcomes.
Quit Now Indiana supports a process and outcomes-based evaluation of all funded programs and has a renewed commitment to serving the community, government officials, and civic leaders.
