Summary

This study aims to make an evidence-based obesity program more accessible to children in rural and minority communities. It will enroll 750 children aged 6-12 with obesity and their parents. The program, called COACH, includes healthy behavior lessons for kids, parent weight loss support, and community center activities. The goal is to see if adapting the program to local needs improves reach and reduces weight-related health disparities.
