Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Prevention Plus

Families will receive a behavioral intervention for childhood obesity provided by a BHC. This will consist of three, in-person meetings (months 1, 3, and 5), and three, 20-minute phone calls (months 2,4, and 6). During in-person visits, child height and weight will be taken, and BMI will be plotted on the BMI-for-age growth chart. During these sessions, families will receive feedback on child growth and weight status. Prevention Plus materials and child and caregiver energy balance behavior goals will be reviewed. The phone calls will be with the caregiver, where caregivers will be asked to measure the height and weight of their child, calculate BMI, and plot on the BMI-for-age growth chart. The BHC will discuss the family's progress on achieving child and caregiver goals and implementation of behavioral parenting strategies. Families will receive a fruit and vegetable prescription (FVx) in addition to the standard Prevention Plus family-based behavioral weight loss treatment.
