Publisher's Synopsis
If you've ever tried to help teens stop smoking, you've found that statistics, scare tactics, and lectures won't work. But ASCENT will. This programme motivates teens to quit through skills, strategies, and support from peers and family members. Research-based, ASCENT is based on the Stages of Change model, which approaches smoking cessation as a process instead of an event. Youths are better equipped to quit for good-which can help reduce further experimentation with other addictive substances.
