LAHL in Psychosocial Rehab
Clubhouses (NC)
• Staff and member surveys
• Of the 271 participants (9 programs) 58%
completed surveys
• Tested well: feasible and well-received
• Group facilitators non-clinicians
• Staff had been concerned about the viability of
the program at its start, but were later surprised,
• The curriculum had provided a sense of
camaraderie among members and generated
energy for other healthy changes in the
clubhouse
Lee et al. BMC Public Health. 2011 Sep 14;11:702.
Conclusions
• LAHL is feasible and well-received in MH
settings
• Increasing consumers readiness to
change tobacco use behavior
• Easy to implement with limited training
• Let us know your experiences with it
