“Sometimes participants will go through a life event that makes them ready for change, and the culture is right there. The consumers really help each other. We even see smokers helping out other people with quitting.”

“Some even quit — and they never even joined the smoking cessation group. They got the information from their peers, and it was a result of culture-changing activities.”

— Tara Fredericks, MSW

“What participants learn that they didn’t know before is really amazing. That information moves them from resistance to the next level of readiness for change.”
— Diane Mills,
Tobacco Cessation Trainer

“You have to really work and give [smoking staff members] alternatives to participate without feeling hypocritical.”
