Study Summary
Childhood obesity is a national problem with racial and ethnic disparities specifically among Hispanic children. The primary purpose of this study is to develop and implement a culturally appropriate healthy eating intervention called Growing Healthy Children and Families in Rural Arkansas. Specific Aim (SA) 1.

SA3. To assess the impact of the Growing Healthy Children and Families in Rural Arkansas intervention on healthy food preparation (mothers) and intake of fruits and vegetables (child). The investigators will compare between the intervention group (16 mother-child dyads) versus the control/attention group (16 mother-child dyad) to see if the intervention is effective in improving diet quality and changing cooking behaviors. Participants will: 1. Participate in cooking workshops and one to one learning activities 2. Report on diet and physical activity 3. Will measure fruit and vegetable intake

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06565455
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06565455 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 64 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Arkansas, which has 194 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Pediatric Obesity appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Growing Healthy Children and Families in Rural Arkansas is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06565455 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Arkansas. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
