The Louisiana Tobacco Control Initiative (LA-TCI) housed within the LSU Health – New Orleans School of Public Health Behavioral and Community Health Sciences Program, promotes a multi-level, translational and transdisciplinary approach to smoking cessation services and research. Grounded by the US PHS Clinical Practice Guideline for Treating Tobacco Use and Dependence, the LA-TCI employs the aforementioned approach at the recommended system, clinic, and patient levels of healthcare. Our goal is to reduce the burden of tobacco use in state health care systems and community health centers by 1) identifying all tobacco users at partner sites; 2) identifying appropriate and acceptable evidence-based interventions for tobacco users; 3) cost effectively providing those interventions to tobacco users, when possible; 4) continuously evaluating the initiative for quality improvement; and 5) conducting research to improve population health outcomes.
