Abstract Introduction: Tobacco use continues to be the leading preventable cause of morbidity and mortality in the Appalachian Tennessee despite the nationwide decline in tobacco use. The main reason contributing to this nationwide decline in tobacco use is tobacco control applied to prevention, cessation and protection efforts.
