Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The Food as Medicine (FAME) intervention aims to improve dietary quality in lower income, primarily ethnic minority youth through food navigation that bridges clinical care and community food resources. This study will evaluate the FAME intervention on dietary quality, food behaviors, health outcomes, and cost-effectiveness, using a pragmatic randomized clinical trial design in 250 at risk youth (8-15 years of age) and their caregiver(s) as compared to Usual Care through the following aims: Aim 1: To evaluate the impact of the FAME intervention on child and caregiver(s) dietary quality at 6 and 12 months as compared to Usual Care. Hypothesis: FAME participants will have increased dietary quality as measured by ASA-24/DQI. Aim 2: To assess the intervention's impact on food behaviors, food insecurity, healthy food sourcing, knowledge, self-efficacy, health outcomes and cost-effectiveness at 6 and 12 months as compared to Usual Care. Aim 3: Evaluate implementation outcomes including dose, satisfaction, and individual interviews and focus groups with youth, parents, physicians, clinic staff, community partners, and CHWs.
