Nicotine Anonymous (NicA) is a twelve-step program for people wishing to quit smoking and live nicotine free. As of May, 2008 there are 600 meetings in thirty-eight countries worldwide with the overwhelming majority of these meetings occurring in the United States, followed by Canada, Brazil, Australia and England, respectively. NicA maintains that total abstinence from nicotine is necessary for recovery. NicA defines abstinence as "a state that begins when all use of nicotine ceases." From Wikipedia
