Detailed Summary

It is known that programs such weight management classes and one-on-one counseling with registered dieticians can lead to weight loss and decrease the risk of diabetes. However, engagement of Kaiser Permanente Colorado members in these activities is low. The purpose of this study is to determine which of three outreach methods is most effective in increasing engagement in these activities.
