It’s time to change the way our behavioral health system handles tobacco.

The mission of the Pennsylvania Statewide Tobacco-Free Recovery Initiative is to facilitate partnerships among academia, state agencies, county public health departments, treatment providers and recovery advocates to advance recovery-oriented evidence-based tobacco use disorder interventions in behavioral health services.

We envision a behavioral health system that fully recognizes that person-centered tobacco interventions serve to maximize treatment outcomes, mitigate health disparities, and allows all Pennsylvanians to thrive in their recovery.

PA STFRI is supported by the Pennsylvania Department of Health through a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
