A Single arm study to evaluate the effectiveness of Hola Bebe application
Participants will receive the handout "It's never too early to prevent diabetes" and will meet with the health educator at their CHC and download the Hola Bebe app. The health educator will advise participants to watch one module and complete an action plan for each of the first 12 weeks of study and encourage participants to weigh themselves weekly. The app includes the following features:1) educational/ behavioral audio visual modules, with automatic prompting to complete an action plan at the end of each module; 2) a motivational message library so that participants can chose which motivational texts they wish to receive, how often and time of day; 3) a community forum where participants can interact with each other and ask questions to the health educator; 4) tracking of weights to allow participants to see a graphic of their weight over time by inputting weekly weights; and 5) awards program where participants can earn badges for completing modules.
