Summary

This study tests a 4-week group coaching program called FAVORes for caregivers of children in food-insecure households. The workshop teaches budgeting, nutrition, and how to find community resources. Researchers will survey 40 participants before and after the program to see if it improves food security and nutrition knowledge.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: FAVORes Workshop (behavioral group coaching program)
What this could lead to: If successful, this workshop could provide a practical, low-cost way to help families stretch their food budget and eat healthier.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage study with only 40 participants and no control group, so results may not apply broadly. The workshop's impact may be limited by factors like income or local food availability.
