Summary

This study tested whether a computer-based virtual counselor, along with support from a community health worker, could help people in public housing quit smoking and get screened for lung cancer. Five adults aged 50 or older who smoked took part. The goal was to see if the program was easy to use and acceptable, not to prove it works. Results will guide a larger future study.
