About This Resource

Project EX is a school-based nicotine and tobacco use cessation program for high school students ages 14-19, developed through the University of Southern California's Keck School of Medicine. The 8-session curriculum is delivered over six weeks and uses engaging activities including games, yoga, healthy breathing, and mock talk shows to help students quit or reduce use of nicotine-containing products. The program covers nicotine addiction, stress coping, withdrawal management, relapse prevention, and self-control skills, and has been implemented successfully across diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds.
