Study Arms (2)

High Intensity Arm (Intervention)

EXPERIMENTAL

Women in the High Intensity (intervention) arm are counseled by a wellness coach and have a group meeting each month. They are also interviewed four times (at baseline, 4 months, 8 months, and 12 months). Women in the high intensity group must have monthly contact with coaches during at least 9 of 12 months via participation in a group activity and/or monthly coaching to receive a "full dose" of the intervention.

Behavioral: High Intensity Arm (Intervention)

Low Intensity Arm (Comparison)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Women in the Low Intensity (comparison) arm are interviewed and coached four times during the study (at baseline, 4 months, 8 months, and 12 months).

Behavioral: Low Intensity Arm (Comparison)

Interventions

The high intensity intervention involves monthly wellness coaching, personalized goal setting, and progress tracking in addition to monthly group activities and social support.

High Intensity Arm (Intervention)

The low intensity intervention involves wellness coaching, personalized goal setting, and progress tracking at baseline, 4 months, 8 months, and 12 months.
