This webinar by the Smoking Cessation Leadership Center is specifically intended to engage psychiatric nursing and pharmacy faculty in a discussion about tobacco dependence treatment and assess the value of the Psychiatry Rx for Change curriculum within academic settings. Participants will engage in an interactive polling session to generate audience feedback. This feedback will be used to inform future strategies to ensure that graduates from health professional degree programs are equipped with the knowledge and skills to facilitate quitting among smokers with co-occurring disorders.

Webinar objectives: Provide an overview of tobacco use among persons experiencing psychiatric and substance use disorders
