Mother-Daughter Physical Activity Intervention for Latina Girls

This study, called "Conmigo," is testing a program to help Latina pre-teen girls (ages 8-11) become more physically active. Researchers want to see if a 10-week program focused on physical activity, involving both mothers and daughters, can increase the girls' activity levels. They will compare this program to another 10-week program that focuses on healthy eating. The study is looking for Latina mothers and their daughters who are not currently meeting physical activity guidelines. Success will be measured by changes in the daughters' physical activity levels over 15 months. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is a randomized study involving 432 mother-daughter pairs. Participants will be assigned to either a physical activity program or a healthy eating program.
What's involved
Participants will attend ten 2-hour in-person sessions with YMCA facilitators. Daughters' physical activity will be measured at enrollment, 3 months, 9 months, and 15 months.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for 15 months after enrollment to measure changes in physical activity.
