RATIONALE FOR INTERVENTIONS Changes in diet,
physical activity and stressors associated with
socioeconomic changes contribute to rapid rise in
prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes Severe
health, social and economic consequences for
individuals, families, communities and
society High prevalence among African American
and Latino women of childbearing age, children
and youth Obesity and diabetes during pregnancy
increase birth weight, pregnancy complications
and subsequent chronic disease risk in mothers
and children

RATIONALE FOR INTERVENTIONS Type 2 diabetes
and other chronic diseases may be prevented with
moderate weight reduction, regular moderate
physical activity, and healthful dietary
patterns Pregnancy and postpartum periods are
windows of opportunity for reducing chronic
disease risks and promoting maternal and child
health
7
Community-Based Participatory Research
  • Partnership approach to research
  • Community, health and academic organizations and
    residents equal partners in all research
    activities
  • Partners share expertise, responsibility and
    ownership capacity building is key
  • Knowledge gained leads to interventions to
    improve community health and well-being

  • PURPOSE
  • Develop, conduct and evaluate processes and

    designed to reduce risk factors for type 2
    diabetes among pregnant and postpartum African
    American and Latino women in Eastside and
    Southwest Detroit
  • Funding Michigan Department of Community Health

STUDY DESIGN Randomized, controlled
trial Recruitment goal N 400 participants
randomized to one of two interventions Healthy
Lifestyle Group social support, home visits and
group education led by community resident
Womens Health Advocates Healthy Pregnancy
Education (Control) Group group education led by
community org partner staff
20
Hypotheses
Changes from baseline in the primary and
secondary outcomes will be greater among healthy
lifestyle group compared to healthy pregnancy
group participants, following the pregnancy
intervention, and at 6-8 weeks postpartum
(following the postpartum intervention). Changes
will be associated with significant changes in
beliefs, attitudes, norms and perceived
behavioral control, and with increases in
perceived social support.
21
Primary Aims Increase the proportion of women
who eat healthfully (increased fruits, vegetables
fiber reduced fat and sugar) and who exercise
regularly at least at moderate levels Secondary
Aims Increase the proportion of women who have
appropriate levels of pregnancy weight gain and
postpartum weight reduction, and have improved
metabolic profiles (e.g. glucose, insulin,
lipids) Process Aim Assess challenges and
contributors to project implementation
22
  • STUDY DESIGN
  • Reduce physical and social environmental barriers
    to adopting healthy lifestyles and to
    participation in project activities
  • Social support from advocates and peers
  • Trusted community organization locations for
  • meetings and data collection
  • Transportation and child care provided for all
  • activities
  • Modify beliefs, attitudes, norms, perceived
    control
  • Based on preliminary study of community womens
    beliefs, practices, recommendations behavioral
    theories

Lessons Learned

  • Social support aids retention despite/because of
    major social issues women faced
  • Community host sites improve access and trust!
  • Transportation and child care essential but
    difficulties can cause huge problems
  • Pregnancy education rare in community and much
    appreciated

41
Lessons learned from pilot
Area Implication
Curriculum Method Delivery - Reduce amount of information per session - Discuss - dont lecture - Integrate goal setting activities - Address beliefs about food and exercise during/after pregnancy - Increase interactive activities (food and exercise demos)
Facilitation Extend Staff Training - Create resource and procedure manuals - Create guidelines for boundary setting
Host Sites Trusted Organizations Matter Regular communication to trouble-shoot is important
42
Where are we now?
  • Challenges
  • Moving nature of pregnancy and postpartum
  • Recruitment and retention (African American
    women)
  • Changing community conditions (transportation)
  • Staffing (qualifications, professionalism,
    language skills)
  • Data collection (scheduling)
  • Transportation (cant always count on it!)
  • Research needs vs. community priorities
  • Lack of linguistically and culturally-appropriate
    materials
  • Costs! AND Time!
  • Strengths
  • Staff (knowledge of community, bonding with
    participants)
  • Group support is appreciated and works!
  • Curriculum design and content new materials and
    methods
  • Community partnerships (problem solving,
    knowledge of community, trusted locations)

43
Empowerment
  • We dont want others to solve our problems,
  • but to inform us about resources available,
  • and where we can find those resources so
  • we can make our own decisions.

We want action and justice.
