NCT02890056

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of a community-based behavioral intervention (H2GO!) on decreasing sugar-sweetened beverage consumption and promoting water consumption among school-aged youth and parents/caregivers. We hypothesize that participants in the intervention site will demonstrate reduced sugar-sweetened beverage intake intake and increased water intake compared to participants in the comparison site at 2 and 6 months follow-up.
