The Urban Indian Health Institute conducted a pilot project to provide baseline data on tobacco use prevalence, knowledge, attitudes and beliefs among American Indian/Alaska Native clients of two urban Indian health organizations. The urban American Indian/Alaska Native adult tobacco survey was conducted with 224 adults in the Seattle and Portland areas. The results document a high prevalence of tobacco use among American Indian/Alaska Native living in these two urban areas and the need for tobacco control programs focused on the urban American Indian/Alaska Native population. The findings may be used to direct future program planning and intervention strategies.
