Study Summary
This trial will test strategies to increase physical activity and reduce chronic disease in Latino churches, empowering members to make healthier lifestyle choices.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for Latina women aged 18-65 who plan to attend their church regularly for the next 18 months, engage in less than 50 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per week, and have no health issues that limit physical activity. Those with cognitive impairments or other health conditions that prevent PA are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests three versions of a program called Faith in Action aimed at increasing physical activity to prevent cardiovascular disease among Latinas. Churches will implement either the standard program, an enhanced version with tailored messaging and leader training, or an enhanced version plus strategies to help sustain the program long-term.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on implementing physical activity programs rather than medical interventions, traditional side effects associated with medications are not applicable. However, participants may experience typical exercise-related discomforts such as muscle soreness.
