The intervention, including three mailed packages (“mailings”) and a coaching call, was adapted using a systematic multi-step adaptation process involving: (i…

We examined support for cigarette and electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS)/heated tobacco product (HTP) smoke-free policies in various locations and persuasiveness of …
