View Award Description

Promoting Obesity prevention among children with Developmental disabilities and families through Engaged Research - Obesity is a growing problem for all children in the United States; the CDC reports that one in six children and adolescents are obese. Children who are obese are at higher risk of having chronic health conditions such as asthma, joint problems, heart disease risk factors, and type 2 diabetes, and for being obese as adults. Children and adolescents with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are more likely to be obese than nondisabled children. To compound this disparity, there are racial and ethnic disparities with respect to children and obesity. Latino children and adolescents experience higher rates of obesity then their white peers, and these disparities are likely to be heightened among children and adolescents with IDD. However, there is extremely limited research on health and obesity among Latino children with IDD. This is surprising given the large representation of Latino children in the US population, and the documented rates of obesity among these children and adolescents. We propose to address this major gap in the research by conducting three groundbreaking studies that examine health, obesity, and health behaviors among children and adolescents with IDD and their maternal caregivers, and develop and test an intervention for Latino children and adolescents with IDD and their families to promote healthy lifestyles. Our dissemination, activities will be grounded in a model of knowledge translation contributing towards the application of findings about Latino children and adolescents with IDD and health.
