Developed with Mayo Clinic, EX Program by Truth Initiative is your best strategic partner to end smoking, vaping, and nicotine use among your population.
Our approach to nicotine addiction treatment is evidence-based and proven effective.
EX Program Essentials includes the only quit vaping program on the market with published evidence of effectiveness among teens and young adults.
Results from our clinical trial among teens ages 13-17 showed our program generated a 37.8% quit rate, with strong evidence of effectiveness among key subgroups such as race, gender, and mental health challenges.
We have enrolled over 750,000 teens and young adults to help them on their quitting journeys.
EX Program Essentials is a fully integrated text-message first program available in English and Spanish. All individuals ages 13+ can enroll via direct text message opt-in with a custom keyword and receive tailored support based on age, tobacco products, quit journey stage, and more.
After enrolling, participants gain access to expert content via customized text messages, emails, and a co-branded website. Individuals can also connect with peers for 24/7 social support in our EX Community. We sync information across these systems to provide a cohesive and seamless experience for all users.

As a client, you receive a real-time dashboard with aggregate data on all participants ages over age 13. No participant-level data is shared.
Your dashboard breaks down your enrollment numbers by zip code to show the effectiveness of your promotional efforts. You also see the number of participants who set a quit date at least once, how many used support keywords, and other data related to how your population engages with us.
Plus, you see quitting-related behaviors and abstinence data at specific intervals throughout your participants’ use of the program.

There is an urgent need to address young adult (YA) vaping, but there isn't much research on how to help them quit. This paper focuses on YA vaping and the need for more studies.
This analysis compares user-submitted reasons for quitting vaping from 2022 to a previous analysis from 2019 to determine whether motivations have shifted among young people.
