Summary

This study tests whether an online training program helps people who recently quit smoking stay smoke-free and also support others in their social network to quit. About 940 adults who have been smoke-free for 2 to 8 weeks will take part. They will complete online surveys and provide blood samples over 12 months to track their progress.
