New Publication: Protocol for Evaluating the Effectiveness of a Family-Based Lifestyle Intervention

A new publication is available describing our latest CIHR-funded RCT protocol for testing a blended web-based program that combines guided group sessions + self-paced resources to help kids with overweight/obesity improve their physical activity, nutrition, and overall wellbeing.

Our goal was to see if this family-focused approach works better than just self-guided online resources over 12 months. With 270 families across Canada participating, results coming soon will show if this scalable approach can support healthier habits for kids and their families.

Stay tuned for results in 2026!
