Advancing Tobacco-Free Recovery Through Systems Change
The National Center of Excellence for Tobacco-Free Recovery (CoE-TFR) developed this driver diagram to guide multi-sector efforts in transforming systems of care and support to advance tobacco-free recovery (TFR) for individuals with behavioral health conditions (mental health and/or substance use conditions). This tool is designed to help partners across public health, healthcare, behavioral health, and community systems identify
shared goals, align strategies and coordinate sustainable action toward system change.
Outpatient health centers serve as ongoing touchpoints for individuals in recovery. This diagram outlines opportunities for these centers to embed tobacco use treatment into routine care, leverage technology and infrastructure, and build a trained workforce to deliver consistent, evidence-based TUT services and supports across diverse populations.
