Health Without Barriers/Salud Sin Barreras for Northern Colorado Families
This study, called Health Without Barriers/Salud Sin Barreras (HWB/SSB), is testing a program designed to help young people and their families in Northern Colorado live healthier lives. The program includes mindfulness training (Learning to BREATHE) for adolescents, education for parents on family support, nutrition, and physical activity, and activities for young children to try new foods. The goal is to make these health programs more accessible and effective for families at risk of chronic diseases like obesity and type 2 diabetes. We want to see if the program is easy to deliver and if families find it helpful. You may be able to join if you are an adolescent aged 11-19, or a parent/guardian of an adolescent in this age range, living in Larimer or Weld County.

Inclusion
What this trial measures
- Intervention Fidelity: Observer Session Ratings6 weeks
HWB delivery fidelity will be assessed as percentage adherence to the curriculum, determined by HWB trainers ratings of HWB sessions on a standardized checklist. The range is 0% (no adherence) to 100% (complete adherence), with higher scores reflecting better adherence
- Intervention Fidelity: Facilitator Session Ratings6 weeks
HWB delivery fidelity will be assessed as percentage adherence to the curriculum, determined by HWB facilitator ratings of HWB sessions on a standardized checklist. The range is 0% (no adherence) to 100% (complete adherence), with higher scores reflecting better adherence
- Intervention Acceptability: Questionnaire6 weeks
Participants rate and comment on each component of the program (i.e. parent education, physical fitness, mindfulness, etc.) separately. Participants are asked to report on how supported they felt during the program, the helpfulness of the facilitators, the perceived benefits of program participation, and their overall experience participating in the program. This questionnaire will only be completed one time at the post-program follow-up. Intervention acceptability ratings can range from 1=not at all to 5=extremely, with higher scores reflecting better acceptability.
- Intervention Feasibility: Attendance6 weeks
Intervention feasibility will be assessed as percentage of family attendance of HWB sessions. The range is 0% (no attendance) to 100% (complete attendance), with higher scores reflecting better feasibility.
