American Lung Associations Serving Illinois Not on Tobacco Project - A Teen Smoking Cessation Project

The primary goals of the UIC evaluation of the ALA of Illinois Not on Tobacco Project are: 1) to evaluate the relative efficacy of the N-O-T Plus program compared to the N-O-T program with a primary end-point of 3 months post program; 2) to identify the characteristics of teens who register for the program, who attend the program, and who drop-out of the program, and to compare these groups; 3) to identify characteristics of teens who successfully quit with the program. A secondary goal of the evaluation is to estimate the recruitment rate of teens into the program in a subset of schools (a sample of 6 schools).
