This CDC grant aims to address the critical need for culturally and linguistically appropriate tobacco cessation services among Asian immigrants with limited English proficiency. Despite evidence-based telephonic counseling being effective for smoking cessation, current state quitline services inadequately serve high-risk subgroups such as Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese speakers. This grant will directly support a national Asian language quitline, providing specialized, accessible interventions. The initiative seeks to overcome challenges in promoting and delivering tailored cessation support, ultimately reducing high smoking rates within these communities. Funding of $1 million annually for a three-year period will facilitate the expansion of these vital services.

| Description: | Tobacco cessation telephonic counseling services are an evidence-based intervention for smoking cessation. However, such services are limited for Asian immigrants with limited English proficiency. Several subgroups of Asian Americans have smoking rates that are higher than the general population. This includes men who predominantly speak Chinese (including Cantonese and Mandarin), Korean, and Vietnamese languages (CKV). Traditional state quitline services have not adequately met the needs of callers who predominantly speak these languages. Providing culturally and linguistically appropriate promotion for an Asian quitline is highly specialized and can be challenging with limited expertise available. CDC plans to directly support a national Asian language quitline with $1 million in annual funding for a period of three years. |
