Teams meet at their chosen location and follow the meeting agenda and materials sent in a packet each week by the correspondence program.
Clients join in groups of two or more coworkers, friends or relatives.
The clients are motivated to quit, and explore the reasons they smoke and the reasons to stop. The clients prepare 4 action plans and begin the application of changes in their routine to help with the quitting process. Teams continue mutual support meetings for one year with unlimited consulting privileges for relapse prevention. A request for call back or return letter is sent by mail. Clients are sent four general program letters, without an expected response.
