Article Synopsis
- African American women in low-income urban areas face significant challenges with high smoking rates and tobacco-related health issues, and traditional interventions have not been effective in helping them quit.
- The study employs a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) framework to engage community members and stakeholders in developing a culturally relevant tobacco cessation program tailored for public housing neighborhoods.
- Over a decade, the project has fostered collaboration among various partners, leading to promising initial results and a larger study, while facing challenges related to partner engagement, equity in collaboration, and ensuring the intervention's sustainability.
