Summary

This study tests a program that teaches parents how to help their child, a childhood cancer survivor, eat healthy and exercise more. The goal is to prevent or reduce obesity, which is a major risk for heart disease in these children. About 520 families will take part in one of two online groups to learn helpful skills.
