As part of Collaborate for Healthy
Weight, in collaboration with HRSA and a coalition of partner
organizations, NICHQ has created the Healthy Weight Collaborative
(HWC) to identify model approaches linking clinical services,
public health functions, and other community services to address
childhood and family obesity. The HWC aims to prevent and treat
childhood obesity by working with 50 community teams to identify,
test, and evaluate a national HWC change package of evidence-based
program and policy interventions. HRSA is seeking OMB clearance to
gather information from the HWC community teams and NICHQ leaders,
staff, and faculty in order to conduct an implementation study of
Phase 2 of program implementation of the HWC project. The goal of
the implementation study is to document the ongoing development and
refinement of the HWC project's "change package," in Phase 2 of
program implementation of the project, as well as the adaptation of
the project's learning collaborative process in a virtual format
with no in-person meetings. The study will also document the
participation of the 40 Phase 2 community teams, their experiences,
and their results.
