This research uses community based participatory research (CBPR) to engage low-income Latinx families in research to pilot test an adapted nutrition education program compared to an existing nutrition education program. The goal of the research is to provide nutrition education on healthy infant feeding to reduce risk for early childhood obesity. The prevalence of obesity in early life remains unacceptably high, especially among low-income children, most are ethnic minorities. Marked ethnic disparities are evident by two years of age, which suggests that existing interventions are not adequate. This project, which focuses on an-at-risk child population, has great potential to address our nation's growing crisis of childhood obesity, which can dramatically improve the health of millions of low-income children, their families, and their future children.
