MAPS is a phone counseling approach to facilitating smoking cessation among cervical cancer survivors, which uses a combined motivational interviewing and social cognitive theory based approach to smoking cessation. Participants will receive 6 MAPS based counseling calls over 12 months, along with personally-tailored SMS-delivered text based messages delivered to the participants phone over 2 years.
