of nicotine dependence in women who have problems with substance dependence.
This study will determine the influence of voucher-based CM on reducing smoking (and other

with them, or in non-pregnant females who smoke. We are targeting smoking cessation since
cigarette use is so prevalent in our service. We will compare a control group to two
