Active Comparator
Experimental
Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP)
Family Diabetes Prevention Program (Family DPP)
Adult participants who are engaged in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Diabetes Prevention Program lifestyle intervention (DPP) as delivered by the Johns Hopkins Brancati Center; this is a 12-month long, group-based lifestyle intervention, delivered by a certified lifestyle coach using a CDC-approved curriculum. This "concurrent control" group will consist of adults who are enrolled in the Brancati Center's DPP within 6 months of the intervention group start dates, who have children less than 18 years of age living in their households.
Adult participants will engage in the family-oriented Diabetes Prevention Program lifestyle intervention (Family DPP); this is an augmented version of the DPP lifestyle intervention. This 12-month, group-based lifestyle intervention will include all elements of the DPP lifestyle intervention as delivered by the Johns Hopkins Brancati Center using a CDC-approved curriculum, with additional child-focused sessions in which adult participants will learn about children's health-related behaviors. Children will be present at the child-focused sessions and family activities, and will be engaged in data collection. These groups will be "mixed," in that non-study participants (adults who are eligible for the DPP), may also participate.
