Summary

The investigators have developed BUILT in hopes of empowering families to adopt and sustain healthy food, sleep, and exercise routines that optimize child focus, attention, and behavior. Over 6-weeks, the BUILT program will explore what science says about the effects of sleep, nutrition, and exercise on brain development and behavior; investigate the food, sleep, and exercise routines of the world's best athletes and intellectuals; and experiment with home routines to find those that best fits with participating families.

It is hypothesized that families participating in BUILT (N=150) will show significant improvements in child health behaviors (sleep, nutrition, physical activity, recreational screen time), child mental health (ADHD symptoms \[primary outcome\], child functional impairment), child physical literacy, and family dynamics (cohesion, structure, communication) from baseline to posttest.

Conditions

  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Be Unstoppable in Life Together (BUILT)

Participants will complete weekly sleep, food, and exercise home challenges focused on creating sustainable healthy eating, sleep, and exercise routines. Parents will participate in weekly support calls by UIC and Chicago Park District staff to provide support and accountability. Children will have the opportunity to win small prizes based on completing weekly challenges. The intervention will be co-facilitated by UIC students and Chicago Park District staff and will largely take place on-line. For additional details visit: https://built.ahs.uic.edu.
