Description

Summary

The purpose of this research is to see if offering more navigation and text-message support will help increase participation and engagement in a Food is Medicine program. The study will recruit people currently participating in cardiac rehabilitation. People will be randomly assigned to 1 of 4 study groups: navigation, text-messaging, both, or neither. People will complete surveys at the start of the study and after 3 months. After 3 months, we will compare how many Food is Medicine meals or groceries people in each group received.
