This trial is testing a program called Your COACH Next Door, which connects children with excess weight and their families to a trained coach who lives in their community. The program helps families make changes to their lifestyle — like eating habits and physical activity — tailored to their own needs. The study measures whether the program improves children's health, weight, and quality of life.
Childhood obesity is becoming more common worldwide and can lead to serious health problems like type 2 diabetes and heart disease. This study exists to see if connecting families with local coaches who provide personalized support can help children and their families make lasting healthy changes.
