Mission Statement

The Smoking Cessation Leadership Center’s (SCLC's) mission is to eliminate disparities in commercial tobacco use and increase the number of providers who help individuals quit. We aim to drive health systems transformation to promote cessation in disproportionately impacted populations through providing technical assistance, organizing leadership summits, and producing national webinars for education.

Director's Corner

It is hard to believe that a year has gone by since I joined SCLC as its new Director. It has a been a year of growth, balance, and integration for me. I have started to connect the spaces that I regularly occupy as a general internist, educator, and researcher into the work of SCLC.
