The smoke-free home study: study protocol for a cluster randomized controlled trial of a smoke-free home intervention in permanent supportive housing

Abstract: Background Formerly chronically homeless adults who live in permanent supportive housing (PSH) have high prevalence of smoking. It is uncommon to find smoke-free policies in PSH because of the concern that such policies contradict PSH’s harm reduction framework and could increase homelessness should residents lose their housing because of the policy. However, in the absence of such policies, non-smoking PSH residents face the harmful effects of secondhand smoke exposure while residents who smok… Show more

“…Continued exposure to thirdhand smoke increases the risk of disease, and creating smoke-free homes can reduce the probability of adolescent thirdhand smoke exposure 17 . Currently, most studies on smoke-free homes indicate that they can reduce secondhand smoke exposure, but few studies have focused on the relationship between smoke-free homes and thirdhand smoke 27 . It is worth noting that thirdhand smoke exposure in provinces, in workplaces, and schools, is slightly higher than in transportation, restaurants, and other environments.…”
