This question came up as a result of this story on the CFAH site -- Smoke-Free Public Housing Would = Health and Savings.Â
Given what we know about how nicotine reduces anxiety, should all public housing become smoke-free? If we're not providing people access to counseling or other methods to address ACEs and their effects, would removing nicotine drive people to find other ways to self-medicate? Should there be buildings that are designated smoke-free and others where smokers can live?Â
