8 and Counting: SAMHSA State Academies for Smoking Cessation Foster Change

The UCSF Smoking Cessation Leadership Center's WEBINAR SERIES is integral to the technical assistance provided by the SCLC.

  • Implement or enhance existing tobacco cessation services using evidence-based practices.
  • Ensure that consumers and staff have access to smoking cessation services and supports to promote health and wellness. Establish partnerships between behavioral health and nicotine cessation organizations to increase available tobacco cessation resources in communities.
