About This Obesity, Child Study in Salt Lake City

Evidence-based interventions for childhood obesity (EBI-CO) can improve children's weight status, but families in rural areas and small cities have limited access to the interdisciplinary healthcare teams recommended to deliver EBI-CO. To address this issue, the investigators adapted an EBI-CO, Building Healthy Families (BHF), which includes all materials and training resources necessary for rural program implementation. The pilot study found that when paired with opportunities to learn from the program developers and other community implementation teams, the packaged program led to effective delivery across 4 rural communities. This scale-up study will compare packaged BHF Resources with and without a learning collaborative facilitation strategy, examining outcomes including reach, effectiveness, implementation, and potential for sustainability in rural areas.
