The Quit and Stay Quit Monday model is an innovative smoking cessation approach that guides smokers' behavior without requiring additional resources. The investigator will conduct a randomized control trial evaluating the effectiveness of this model as compared to usual smoking cessation care in a population of smokers with a mental health condition.
The overall objective of this proposal is to innovate the tobacco treatment paradigm for smokers with mental health conditions (MHC) by integrating the Quit and Stay Quit Monday Model into smoking cessation services for this vulnerable population. The investigator will conduct a two-group, parallel-randomized controlled trial (RCT). The target population will be generated by the NYU Langone electronic medical record (EMR). The investigator will proactively contact patients to offer enrollment and randomize participants 1:1 to one of two groups (n=50/group): (1) Quit and Stay Quit Monday Model or (2) Usual Care. For evaluation, phone surveys will be conducted at baseline and 3-months to assess quit attempts, intervention satisfaction, and smoking cessation.

Participants randomized to the study intervention will receive: (1) 2 telephone smoking cessation coaching calls; (2) enrollment into SmokefreeTXT; and (3) enrollment in the iquitmonday.org weekly email newsletter. The telephone coaches will ask these participants to identify a future Monday as their quit date and provide coaching to achieve a Monday quit. The coaches will also enter the selected Monday as the patient's quit day when enrolling the patient into SmokefreeTXT.
