Our Health Promotion projects encourage people to make healthy lifestyle choices.

Quit partnership

This program seeks to reduce harms caused by cigarettes and e-cigarettes in Victorian public housing. The program was informed by a process of co-design between Quit Victoria, VicHealth, Homes Victoria and a panel of public housing residents from within the City of Yarra, who sought to answer the question: “How can we make it easier to be safe from tobacco-related harm in our community?.” The public housing residents’ panel worked together to develop solutions in response to this question and implement them.
