YMCA Produce Prescription Project (YPRx) (NCT06695104)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
In this randomized control study, participants will be randomized 1:1 to either participate in the YMCA's Produce Prescription Program (YPRx) and receive weekly deliveries of fresh produce bags for their household or to receive YPRx plus participate in the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP). The investigators hypothesize that participants randomized to receive YPRx plus DPP will have greater weight loss, increased physical activity, improved diet quality and behaviors, increased food security, improved self-rated health assessment, decreased healthcare utilization from baseline to endline (12 months) compared to those randomized to receive YPRx produce deliveries only. We will also collect data on process measures for implementation purposes.
