CYAN through Project UNIFORM supports events to encourage tobacco-free lives. Providing tobacco cessation services and resources to support tobacco-free living is one way to show appreciation to active duty service members and Veterans for their service.
Who Project UNIFORM Provides Materials To
Project UNIFORM is able to support Through With Chew Week events hosted in California. These events or activities may be hosted by military installations, health care clinics, college campuses, community organizations and coalitions, and other agencies or groups seeking to provide tobacco prevention and cessation information to military community members.
What Project UNIFORM Offers
We are able to provide participating installations, colleges, organizations, and groups with free smokeless tobacco quit kits, electronic media, and print resources.
Quit Kits contain items and information to support a person who uses smokeless tobacco in making a quit attempt. These materials encourage behavior change and participation in location tobacco-free activities.
Print resources, including quit cards, post cards, posters, and flyers are also available. Military-specific resources can be requested when registering for the event. Additional educational materials can be ordered by submitting an Educational Materials form to CYAN. These materials are available year-round to promote cessation in local military communities.
