Translation of Fit and Strong! into a culturally relevant program for Latinos

The award winning evidence-based Fit and Strong! physical activity/behavior change program that was designed and tested by Roybal Center P.I. Susah Hughes, D.S.W. is being translated for Hispanic participants by Dr. Hughes and Cheryl Der Ananian, Ph.D. The Hispanic version will be piloted in Chicago and Phoenix this spring. We currently have a waiting list of providers who want to adopt/replicate the Hispanic version in Miami, Los Angeles, and Mexico and we are discussing adoption in Peru and Costa Rica.
