STOP on the Net (SOTN) is a free, online program from CAMH designed to help individuals attempt to quit smoking. Eligible participants can receive four weeks of free nicotine patches and gum/lozenges mailed directly to their door. The Smoking Treatment for Ontario Patients (STOP) Program is a province-wide initiative delivering smoking cessation treatment (up to 26 weeks of NRT) and counselling support to people who want to reduce/quit their tobacco use. These supports are available free of charge, through partnerships with community health care organizations. Importantly, STOP has been able to reach and successfully be implemented within vulnerable communities that face barriers in accessing care. The STOP Program is funded by the Ontario Ministry of Health.
