Mahalo for your interest in joining our upcoming conversations about quitting smoking.
Ward Research is seeking Hawaiʻi residents ages 35 and older who have lived in Hawaiʻi for more than five years, currently smoke, and are planning to quit. We would love to hear your thoughts and experiences in a confidential focus group or one-on-one interview.
Your perspective can help us better understand what support, information, and approaches feel useful — and what does not — for people who are ready to take that next step.
A few additional questions will determine eligibility. If you qualify and fully participate, you can earn up to $225.
