Resources for Your Work

 There are downloadable manuals and many other materials for the team members on this website -- all the guidance you will need. It fits within the parameters of quality mentored health behavior change that allows self-determination and control over the cessation process augmented by a strong follow-up support component. The education and the social integration learned and achieved in the cessation program will benefit families and community.  Together Everyone Achieves More With Organization, Respect,  and Kindnes  

Preparation for the Event

Invitation by Mentor

The Program Delivery Method

The Program Delivery Method

An every-member strategy draws tobacco users to the CMATCH program you are planning.  

Members of your congregation/group prayerfully engage in caring conversation with a user they know or know-of and invite  them to the opening Workshop, "Let's Begin to Quit" with an invitation card prepared with date, time, and place and the member's contact information with a promise that the member will be their Mentor and attend with them.   

The Mentor will continue the relationship with the participant throughout the year of assistance.

Would-be Mentors are to attend an orientation session scheduled by the CMATCH Leader and to receive the invitations.

What an opportunity to engage in discipling amidst a fellowship group that promotes a healthy lifestyle!


The Program Delivery Method

The Program Delivery Method

The Program Delivery Method

FrameWork Health has developed a method to facilitate successful cessation using a combination of:

1. Assessment Interview (prior t or during the first Wrkshop session) using a standard survey tool crafted for CMATCH, titled Tobacco Cessation Assessment Tool (TCAT), in which strengths and weakness in the areas of history, tobacco use intensity, health beliefs and values, perception of stress and response to it, the concept of personal power and confidence, determination of readiness, learning style, and degree of social support present in the individual are identified. By this, readiness and placement in the program are obtained and benchmarks are set to compare with a repeat of TCAT  after CMATCH is completed.

2. A self-help wholistic tobacco cessation program, Taking Control, applying audio and visual guidance, and projected free, in eBook format, from this website . 

3. Social engagement in strategically scheduled group meetings in workshop format, "Let's Begin to Quit" for supportive health education and the development of mentoring relationships.  

4.  Carefully scripted, scheduled motivational telephone coaching by carefully prepared individuals over 12 months.

"If tobacco products were introduced to the market today, they would never satisfy any of the regulatory processes now in place to protect consumers, and they would not be sold freely.  Now that we know the harm tobacco causes, our response must match the magnitude of the problem."
