Mom and me: new study aims to get latina girls moving
NCT ID NCT07088406
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a 10-week program called Conmigo, where Latina mothers and their 8-11 year old daughters attend weekly sessions together to encourage physical activity. Researchers will compare this to a program focused on diet. The goal is to see if the activity program increases the daughters' moderate-to-vigorous exercise, measured by accelerometers. 432 mother-daughter pairs will participate.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Physical activity promotion program (Conmigo)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could provide a practical, family-based way to boost physical activity in Latina preteens, potentially improving long-term health.
- What could go wrong
- This is a behavioral intervention, not a drug or cure. Results may vary by family, and long-term adherence is uncertain. The study is still recruiting.
