UW Center for Tobacco Research and Intervention (UW-CTRI) is an excellent online source for up-to-date information and research regarding effective tobacco cessation. They offer a free, evidence-based system that you can incorporate into your health care setting based on the Clinical Practice Guideline:
Treating Tobacco Use and Dependence. Visit their website to learn more!
