Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Preventing the onset of pediatric obesity and diabetes in Latino families The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial of a family-based community centered intervention. One-hundred Latino families with children ages 3-5 will be randomly allocated to either the intervention group (a 3-month skills building program to improve nutrition and aerobic activity for child-parent dyads) or a control group (literacy promotion). Through an active partnership with Nashville Metro Parks and Recreation and the Division of General Pediatrics at the Vanderbilt Children's Hospital, the investigators will: 1) Implement an intervention for Latino families with young children that includes parent training, behavior modification training, nutrition education, and physical activity promotion; 2) Evaluate how this intervention affects growth trajectories in children; 3) Evaluate how this intervention affects parenting practices for Latino families to improve nutrition and physical activity; and 4) Evaluate the ability to link families into a pediatric medical home if they have none identified. By developing innovative family-focused interventions, finding solutions to health conditions such as obesity and diabetes could be realized-con la familia.
