Brief summary

The goal of this research study is to learn if the FoodiiS-Kids intervention is useful to parents and guardians of pediatric cancer survivors.

Detailed description

Primary Objective: Assess the feasibility and acceptability of the FoodiiS intervention for parents of pediatric cancer survivors (recruitment, retention, satisfaction). Secondary Objective: Explore the preliminary efficacy of FoodiiS to improve diet quality and cooking behaviors among parents of pediatric cancer survivor.

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTFoodiiS plus Culinary Essentials Food Delivery

The FoodiiS intervention will include videos, recipes, and other online healthy eating content adapted from previously developed materials.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTCulinary Essentials Food Delivery Only

To support participants in effectively learning the healthy cooking strategies and mitigate access issues, investigators will provide participating families two home food deliveries of non-perishable culinary ingredients that are related to HCI practices including whole grain versions of common products (brown rice, whole wheat flour), healthier cooking oils (olive and canola), and a core selection of herbs and spices, among other goods.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTWaitlist control

The control group will receive no intervention until after T1. After the T1 data collection time point, the control group will receive all FoodiiS intervention materials.
