Teens Committed to Health Through Activity, Relationships, and Good Eating

This study will evaluate the preliminary efficacy of a school-based weight management program for underserved adolescents. The program was designed with a phased treatment structure to provide more intensive treatment to participants who do not respond to treatment initially. Specifically, this study aims to examine differences in zBMI over time between students who do not respond to the first semester and receive more intensive treatment in the second semester, responders to first semester who receive more intensive treatment in the second semester, non-responders to the first semester who receive usual treatment in the second semester, and responders who receive usual treatment in the second semester at the end of the second semester, 1 year follow-up, and 2 year follow-up.
