Building Connections: Improving Health in Your Community
The Building Connections study is looking at ways to improve health for people in socially vulnerable communities. It's testing a program called the "Building Connections Intervention" against "Treatment as Usual" (the care you would normally receive). This program offers support for weight management, cancer screening, and mental health. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 75 years old, speak English or Spanish, and either have obesity (a BMI of 30 or higher) or are due for colorectal or cervical cancer screenings. The study will measure success by looking at changes in your body mass index (BMI), how many people complete cancer screenings, and improvements in mental health over 12 months. The current status of the study is unclear.
