• Identify and implement evidence-based strategies to engage behavioral health populations with high rates of tobacco use.
• Enhance motivational interviewing techniques to best engage clients in tobacco cessation attempts.
• Increase knowledge of FDA approved NRTs and other pharmacological supports to best support your clinicians and clients.
