This study will modify an existing evidence-based parental tobacco cessation intervention (the Clinical Effort Against Secondhand Smoke Exposure, or CEASE) delivered in pediatric primary care clinics to address shared tobacco use determinants and barriers to smoking cessation treatment among Somali Americans, an immigrant population facing significant combustible tobacco use disparities.

CEASE+
PHASE1
Smoking is a significant and growing concern within U.S. Somali immigrant populations, who experience unique barriers to accessing and using tobacco treatments developed for the general population. Household smoking exposes Somali families to second- and thirdhand smoke with related negative health consequences and influences children's tobacco use beliefs and future behaviors. This study will modify and then pilot test an existing evidence-based parental tobacco cessation intervention (the Clinical Effort Against Secondhand Smoke Exposure, or CEASE) delivered in pediatric primary care clinics to address shared tobacco use determinants and barriers to smoking cessation treatment among Somali Americans. This new intervention, CEASE+, will increase access to and utilization of tobacco cessation treatment for Somali parents through brief clinician- and staff-delivered messaging and tobacco cessation resources. The project will take place in two phases. In phase 1, the investigators will modify the existing intervention to develop CEASE+ by conducting focus groups with Somali parents who smoke and non-smokers who live with adults who smoke and with the help of a community advisory board. In phase 2, we will conduct a pilot study of the new intervention, CEASE+, with Somali parents in 2 pediatric primary care clinics (n=50 parents who smoke). Primary outcomes will include feasibility and acceptability of CEASE+ intervention components and study procedures. Secondary outcomes will include cigarette smoking abstinence and total tobacco abstinence at 3 months and changes in cigarette smoking heaviness between baseline and 3 months.
