Families Preventing Diabetes Together

Families in the intervention group will be asked to participate in four in-person sessions at a local Fairview North metropolitan area clinic over the course of two months. Sessions will focus on age-appropriate nutrition and diabetes education, meal planning and cooking skills, healthful eating, and eating meals as a family. All family members will be asked to attend and will be involved in all four, two-hour sessions. The parent with diabetes will also complete one goal setting telephone call based on motivational interviewing techniques during the intervention period.
