Interventions

  • FoodiiS plus Culinary Essentials Food Delivery — DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT
    The FoodiiS intervention will include videos, recipes, and other online healthy eating content adapted from previously developed materials.
  • Culinary Essentials Food Delivery Only — DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT
    To support participants in effectively learning the healthy cooking strategies and mitigate access issues, investigators will provide participating families two home food deliveries of non-perishable culinary ingredients that are related to HCI practices including whole grain versions of common products (brown rice, whole wheat flour), healthier cooking oils (olive and canola), and a core selection of herbs and spices, among other goods.
  • Waitlist control — DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT
    The control group will receive no intervention until after T1. After the T1 data collection time point, the control group will receive all FoodiiS intervention materials.

Study Details

The goal of this research study is to learn if the FoodiiS-Kids intervention is useful to parents and guardians of pediatric cancer survivors.
