What is a Tobacco Treatment Specialist?

A Tobacco Treatment Specialist (TTS) is a professional who possesses the skills, knowledge, and training to provide effective, evidence-based interventions for tobacco dependence across a range of intensities.

TTS may work in a variety of settings, including but not limited to: hospitals, community health centers, HMOs, medical and dental practices, educational settings, social service agencies, tobacco treatment centers, quit lines, drug/alcohol abuse treatment programs, and mental health centers.

TTS may have various professional affiliations, and may engage not only in providing treatment but also in educating others (health care professionals, administrators, scientists, smokers, non-smokers) about tobacco dependence treatments.
