Interventions

The Heart Healthy Initiative for Hispanic Adults (HIP)behavioral

This randomized controlled pilot intervention study will include 150 Hispanic adults (45-75y) in the Greater Boston area. Participants will be randomized to either the intervention or control group after completing their baseline interview. The intervention group will receive 6 months of weekly group educational sessions, Zumba fitness classes and interactions with an embodied computer agent (ECA). The fitness classes and interactions with the ECA will continue for the second 6 months of the 1 year intervention. Intervention activities will occur at community centers in the greater Boston area. Control participants will receive standard of care for the first 6 months and will be offered the full intervention (weekly group educational sessions, Zumba fitness classes and interactions with the ECA) for the second 6 months of the study. Participants will complete an interview and blood draw at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months.
