Community partners (St. Vincent de Paul Family Wellness Program and Lincoln Family YMCA) and SIRC tested the efficacy of a culturally-grounded diabetes prevention intervention, Every Little Step Counts (ELSC) for obese Latino adolescents from 2012-2017. This NIMHD award includes a five-year continuation study, Follow-up of a Culturally-Grounded Diabetes Prevention Program for Obese Latino Adolescents, led by Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention (CHPDP) director Dr. Gabe Shaibi. The study will describe long-term health trajectories Latino adolescents following completion of ELSC and examine how family, home, and neighborhood factors are associated with individual diabetes risk profiles over time. The ELSC intervention focuses on sustaining healthy behavior changes through nutrition and fitness classes delivered to obese Latino adolescents and their families.
