Arm 1: Reduction (via relocation and reduction in personal smoking)/cessation
The reduction/cessation arm (Arm 1) “meets smokers where they are” using (a) a harm reduction approach that reinforces the use of designated smoking areas available and/or identifies ways residents can reduce their personal smoking more generally via motivational interviewing skills thereby encouraging compliance via relocation and personal smoking reduction; along with (b) in-residence cessation support to reduce barriers to participation in cessation services. Enrolled participants who are smokers are referred by the survey team to peer educators from Health People. The peer educator coordinates smoking cessation support, including serving as a liaison between participant and research team, providing information regarding the smoke-free policy and opportunities for relocation, and connecting participant to tobacco replacement therapy and/or physician support if deemed appropriate.
