The purpose of the proposed study is to determine barriers and unmet smoking cessation treatment needs from leaders in behavioral health organizations, behavioral health treatment providers, and community members in Chicago and pilot test a community-informed, targeted rolling smoking cessation treatment within a community organization. The research team and the Respiratory Health Association (RHA) will work together to identify community sites that could derive possible benefit from adopting and implementing the targeted treatment.
Aim 1: Develop a Community Advisory Board (CAB) comprised of providers, community members, and organization leadership.
Aim 2: Use a mixed-methods approach to understand barriers, facilitators, and unmet treatment needs regarding smoking cessation treatment within the community.
Aim 3: Pilot test the targeted smoking cessation treatment across a 3-month period at one community site through partnership with Respiratory Health Association.
Hypothesis: The targeted intervention will demonstrate feasibility and acceptability.
