No Smoking Day
November 19 · Level 7 · #887 of 2238
No Smoking Day offers a prompt to think about life without tobacco and find support for getting started. The focus is on helping people change a difficult habit, with encouragement and practical planning.
How it is celebrated: awareness events, advice sessions and support groups give people space to discuss quitting. Participants make plans, choose a starting date and ask friends or family for patient encouragement.
The November tradition is associated with the American Great American Smokeout, held on the third Thursday of November. It is a separate campaign from World No Tobacco Day, which takes place in May.
