Enrolling by invitation · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Physical Activity

In brief

This study will test a physical activity intervention for Latina teenagers. Investigators will recruit 200 Latina adolescents who are currently under-active to participate in this 12-month study. Participants will be referred to the study by their primary care provider. Half of the participants will be randomly selected for the Intervention group, and will receive an individual counseling session and access to a personalized website. These participants will also receive a Fitbit activity tracker to help with goal setting and monitoring, plus weekly text messages and access to the study Instagram account to remind participants to be physically active. Those assigned to the control group will receive the Fitbit activity tracker.
