Virtual Advisors for Physical Activity Promotion in Underserved Communities

The virtual advisor is named Carmen. She is an animated, computer-generated figure that speaks to participants and gives advice and support for physical activity.

A promotora is a trained, lay health worker. Promotoras will be trained and supervised to provide advice, support and guidance to people to encourage them to be more physically active. They work with people face to face and by telephone to offer support and advice.
