Community Active and Healthy Families

To address childhood overweight disparities among Latino children in immigrant families a pilot trial of a community-based obesity treatment program, Community Active and Healthy Families (AHF), among 5-12 year old overweight and obese Latino children in immigrant families using pre/post design will be conducted.
