HALT Smoking Cessation is an online, lifestyle-focused program that teaches evidence-informed strategies to quit smoking and stay quit.

We believe quitting changes everything

The HALT Smoking Cessation program helps people build the skills, confidence, and support they need to quit tobacco and protect their long-term health. Participants learn how nicotine addiction works, how to manage cravings and triggers, and how to create a realistic quit plan that fits their life and health goals.

What is HALT Smoking Cessation?

HALT Smoking Cessation is an online, lifestyle-focused program that teaches evidence-informed strategies to quit smoking and stay quit. It combines brief microlessons, craving-management tools, and goal-setting exercises with practical guidance on medications, stress, and support networks.

HALT 360 programs are available in Native American and Spanish language versions to better serve diverse communities and enhance cultural and linguistic accessibility.

Through short, engaging lessons, participants explore:

  • How nicotine addiction affects the brain and body, and why quitting is challenging but achievable
  • Skills for managing cravings and high-risk situations, including stress, alcohol, social triggers, and routines tied to tobacco use.
  • Options for quit medications and supports (such as quitlines and digital tools) that can increase their chance of success.

Who is HALT Smoking Cessation best for?

Specific eligibility can be set by each partner, but HALT Smoking Cessation is especially suited for adults who:

  • Currently use cigarettes or other tobacco products and are ready—or almost ready—to make a serious quit attempt.
  • Live with or are at risk for chronic conditions such as heart disease, COPD, diabetes, or cancer, and want to reduce their risk and improve outcomes.

  • Need flexible, online support they can use alongside quitlines, medications, and clinical care.

Partners can further refine criteria (for example, existing chronic disease, pregnancy or postpartum status, behavioral health conditions, or participation in other HALT programs) to align the program with benefits and equity goals.

How HALT Smoking Cessation works

HALT Smoking Cessation is delivered through the HALT Health and Lifestyle Training platform, making it easy to scale across clinics, health systems, public health agencies, and community organizations.

Key features:

  • Online microlessons on addiction, preparing to quit, setting a quit date, managing withdrawal, handling slips, and long-term relapse prevention.

  • Craving-management tools, prompts, and practice scenarios that help participants respond differently to stress and triggers

  • Goal-setting and self-monitoring that support behavior change over time and can complement quitlines, counseling, and pharmacotherapy

How HALT Smoking Cessation supports providers, plans, and employers

HALT Smoking Cessation helps organizations address one of the most powerful levers for chronic disease prevention and management: quitting tobacco.

  • Provides a structured program to recommend to patients who smoke, reinforcing brief counseling delivered in primary care, specialty care, or hospital settings.
  • Supports guideline-consistent care by pairing education with prompts to use FDA-approved quit medications and evidence-based supports.

For health plans, employers, and other organizations:

  • Can be integrated into chronic disease prevention initiatives, population health strategies, and value-based models that prioritize tobacco cessation.
