"National concern over the high rates of smoking among the African American population and the absence of available program materials inspired the initial development and current revision to this text. The guide was produced in partnership with key segments of the African American community, including churches, service organizations and educational institutions. It addresses many issues that are specific to African Americans such as targeted advertising campaigns and historical, cultural, and socioeconomic influences. It also offers proven strategies for anyone who wants to quit; how friends and family can help; and how the community and its leaders can promote the value of gaining freedom from tobacco." -- Website.
