Description

Summary

This is an interventional research study about clinical, psychosocial, and behavioral factors that impact weight loss, weight maintenance, and cardiovascular disease in socially disadvantaged persons.

Details

The purpose of this study is to understand whether the incorporation of social determinants of health into a weight loss/maintenance study, along with a known behavioral intervention will result in improved efficacy than the behavioral intervention by itself. This study will examine the role of psychosocial, clinical, and behavioral factors in the context of the intervention.

The entire duration of the study will be 18 months. Study activities will occur virtually or at YMCA locations in the city of San Francisco or at other community centers.
