Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to help overweight or obese children to maintain or reduce their body mass index (BMI) through the home-based parent training program the investigators developed called DRIVE. The investigators hypothesize that children from families that receive the DRIVE program will show greater maintenance or improvement in their BMIs than families who do not receive DRIVE.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in Child BMIz
The child's body mass index z-scores (BMIz) was calculated by dividing the the child's weight in kilograms (measured by a digital scale) by the child's height in meters (measured by a stadiometer). These measurements were taken at each assessment point (pre-, mid-, and post-assessment).
Week 0, Week 9, Week 19
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Change in Parent BMIz
Week 0, Week 9, Week 19
Study Arms (2)
DRIVE program
EXPERIMENTALParticipants in the experimental group will receive the DRIVE curriculum (15 sessions) via weekly sessions conducted in their home by a DRIVE provider.
Control Group
NO INTERVENTIONThe parents in the control group will be mailed information on nutrition, physical activity, and parent-child interactions. Information on nutrition will include guidelines provided by the "MyPlate" website (http://www.choosemyplate.gov/preschoolers.html) in addition to information on proper nutrition and suggest levels of physical activity for preschoolers. Lastly, parents will be provided with the free publication, "Adventures in Parenting: How responding, Preventing, Monitoring, Mentoring, and Modeling Can Help You Be A Successful Parent," authored by National Institutes of Health, Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. Information covered in this document includes effective parenting strategies for children at specific ages.
Interventions
The DRIVE program (Developing Relationships that Include Values of Eating and Exercise) is a home-based parent training program, which involves 15 sessions focusing on parent-child interactions, health and nutrition, and physical activity
