A diet rich in fruits and vegetables is associated with reduced risk of diet-related chronic diseases. However, fewer than half of children in the United States consume the recommended amount.
This article describes the community-based participatory research (CBPR) process used to develop the Harvest for Healthy Kids curriculum.
Harvest for Healthy Kids is a intervention research project designed to increase access to and intake of fruits and vegetables among preschoolers enrolled in Head Start. The curriculum is composed of eight kits, each focusing on a different fruit or vegetable.
The Harvest for Healthy Kids curriculum was developed through an iterative process in which Head Start teachers were highly involved. The final product reflects the teachers' experiences using the curriculum and their suggestions for improving.
The CBPR process used to develop the Harvest for Healthy Kids curriculum led to a product that is grounded in theory and practice.
富含水果和蔬菜的饮食与降低饮食相关慢性病的风险有关。然而,在美国,只有不到一半的儿童摄入了推荐量的水果和蔬菜。
本文描述了用于开发“健康儿童收获计划”课程的社区参与式研究(CBPR)过程。
“健康儿童收获计划”是一项干预研究项目,旨在增加参加“启智计划”的学龄前儿童获取和摄入水果及蔬菜的机会。该课程由八个套装组成,每个套装聚焦于一种不同的水果或蔬菜。
“健康儿童收获计划”课程是通过一个反复迭代的过程开发出来的,在此过程中“启智计划”的教师深度参与。最终产品反映了教师使用该课程的经验以及他们的改进建议。
用于开发“健康儿童收获计划”课程的CBPR过程产生了一个基于理论和实践的产品。
