Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Participants in the study were recruited from the client pool of a community mental health agency with an annual client census of over 1,200 individuals located in a large urban setting. Clients of the agency are adult men and women over sixteen years of age with a severe mental illness who, upon referral to the agency, are homeless or vulnerably housed. Eligibility for the study:
  • 1\. Adult men or women with severe mental illness
  • 2\. Over the age of 16
  • 3\. Smoke 5 or more cigarettes a day
  • 4\. Have identified an interest to reduce or eliminate tobacco use

Exclusion Criteria

  • As there is no adequate clinical research in pregnant women and smoking cessation treatments, women of childbearing age had a pregnancy test done to ensure that they were not pregnant before the study began. For women using medications to quit smoking, if they were pregnant or became pregnant during the study, these risks could affect their health or the unborn child. Therefore, women who were pregnant, breast\-feeding or were planning a pregnancy within the next year would have been excluded from the study. In discussions with the study Nurse Practitioner, additional pregnancy tests were done during the study as needed.
