Background
In Lane County Oregon, smoking rates during pregnancy have risen significantly since 2001 and are now higher than the state average (15.2% vs. 12.6%).
Smoking during pregnancy is the single most preventable cause of illness and death among mothers and infants.

Background
Low-income women and those with less than 12 years of education are more likely to smoke during pregnancy and have less access to cessation support.
Pregnancy is a unique “window of opportunity” to influence behavior change.
![Page 5: A Tobacco Cessation and Relapse Prevention Program Designed for use in a WIC Clinic Jennifer Jordan, MPH Lane County Public Health Eugene, OR](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551508dc550346c77d8b4712/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Background
Approximately 20-30% of women who smoke before pregnancy quit when they learn they are pregnant and an additional 20-30% quit after entering prenatal care.
Unfortunately, at least half of these women resume smoking within the first 6 months postpartum and 80% relapse within the first year postpartum.
The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program serves over 42% of all pregnant women in Lane County

Purpose
Quitting for Keeps aims to increase access to tobacco relapse prevention and cessation services among low-income pregnant and postpartum women utilizing WIC services.
This community-based participatory research project collaborated with WIC staff and clients to modify the traditional 5A’s cessation intervention to a briefer 3A’s model that was tailored for the WIC setting and more easily incorporated into a client’s visit.

Materials & Methods
Lane County Public Health partnered with the Oregon Research Institute (ORI) to tailor ORI’s 3A’s (Ask, Advise, & Arrange) brief cessation intervention model for the WIC setting (see diagram).

Materials & Methods
Three focus groups were conducted with WIC clients and staff to identify opportunities and barriers to providing brief tobacco cessation and relapse prevention interventions.
The input was used to adapt resources and tools for staff and clients, including a staff training, fact sheets on tobacco use and pregnancy, and a Quitting for Keeps resource guide.

Materials & Methods
In a Quitting for Keeps training on the 3A’s brief intervention technique, we included strategies for dealing with defensive clients, motivating clients who have previously been unsuccessful, using nonjudgmental approaches, communicating the potential health effects of tobacco, and referring clients to community resources.

Materials & Methods
In November 2007, the counselors began incorporating the intervention in their client visits.
Additionally, a “Quit Information” workshop was available every three months that met clients’ class requirements to receive their WIC vouchers.
![Page 13: A Tobacco Cessation and Relapse Prevention Program Designed for use in a WIC Clinic Jennifer Jordan, MPH Lane County Public Health Eugene, OR](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551508dc550346c77d8b4712/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Materials & Methods
Clients responded to follow-up phone surveys at 6 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months post-intervention.
Reports summarizing the number of interventions completed, the number of quit dates set, and client satisfaction were shared and discussed with WIC counselors at their monthly staff meetings.

Lessons Learned
Systematic cessation and relapse prevention training among WIC staff can successfully increase counseling practices.
Periodic feedback on the effectiveness of smoking interventions and opportunities for input are important motivators for providers to implement cessation promotion and relapse prevention.
Challenges include: making the intervention a priority; attrition on follow-up surveys; client recruitment for the cessation support class; and staff turn over.
