Tackling Tobacco and Healthy Lifestyles

Danila Dilba’s Tackling Indigenous Smoking (TIS)

This program helps Indigenous people develop quit smoking skills through tailored and culturally safe services including one-on-one consultations around motivation, education, goal setting and clinical advice.

The TIS team delivers the Deadly Choices smoking education sessions at middle schools in the Darwin and Palmerston region. The team runs smoking cessation sessions for adult groups, such as at residential rehabilitation centres and for pregnant clients attending Danila Dilba’s clinics. The team also runs education sessions to promote smoke-free environments and does promotion at public events and in shopping centres.
