About this trial

This clinical trial evaluates a smoke-free home intervention for reducing exposure to secondhand smoke from commercial tobacco in homes of participants who live in rural tribal communities. Smoke-free homes are an innovative and relatively untapped strategy for cancer prevention in rural tribal communities. Smoke-free policies, including those that target homes, can reduce exposure to secondhand smoke and support smoking cessation. Rural and racial/ethnic inequities intersect to increase tobacco-related harms among Indigenous populations. A smoke-free home program may improve the health of the household as well as impact smoking behavior among the family unit by reducing secondhand smoke exposure.
