Funded Activity Summary

My study ties in with a large national project that aims to find out what works to reduce smoking among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. I will look specifically at one tobacco control approach and its effect on steps toward quitting and staying quit in this group. Together with findings from the broader study, this research will provide valuable new information to help reduce smoking, the number one killer for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
