education efforts, including assessing the extent by which the CIS 
reaches and impacts underserved populations; (2) smoking/tobacco use 
behavior of individuals seeking NCI's smoking cessation assistance 
through the CIS in order to provide smoking cessation services tailored 
to the individual client's needs and track their smoking behavior at

respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized
