Clinical Trial Summary

This study evaluates the effect of a fully virtual nutrition technical assistance training program for family child care home providers on the food they serve young children in their care and the food environment in their home. Half the providers will be randomly assigned to the nutrition program and the other half will receive a comparison on environmental health.


Clinical Trial Description

Early care and education (ECE) providers play a vital role in ensuring that young children have access to nutritious foods. Over 25% of children in ECE (1.2 million children) attend Family Child Care Homes (FCCH). Improvements in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) may introduce new barriers for FCCH, which have limited meal preparation capacity. Limited research has examined foods served by FCCH providers, and no group randomized trials have been conducted using a Community-Based Participatory approach in FCCH and including an evaluation of intervention costs. Goals: 1. Determine the effectiveness of a virtual, rural outreach community-based Nutrition Technical Assistance Intervention to enhance meeting CACFP best-practices. Methods: Conduct a cross-sectional assessment of a random sample of FCCH providers' (n=54) menus and meals served. Foods will be evaluated against the CACFP requirements and best-practices. Trained Extension Educators will implement both interventions (n=27 intervention, n=27 comparison) focused in rural counties, reaching underserved rural and low-income populations. The intervention is based on theoretical foundations and formative interviews, and will consist of two virtual 60-90-minute one-on-one visits with the FCCH and one virtual group class lasting approximately 3 hours. ;
