What the study is about

The goal of this 15-month cluster clinical trial is to compare a resilience and stress management program to a physical activity program for early childhood education (ECE) staff on change in well-being. It will also look to see if changes in well-being continue over time.

The study sample will include 80 child care centers. Including 80 ECE center directors and approximately 560 ECE center staff.

Some ECE centers will receive only the remotely delivered Resilience program. This program works with ECE staff and helps them recognize and strengthen their resilience assets and resources. Other ECE centers will receive only the remotely delivered Physical Activity program that will focus on staff physical activity habits and strength training.

There will be 3 months of active program participation and 12 months of a maintenance period where participants will only have access to program materials.

Being studied: Resilience; Physical Activity

Conditions: Resilience
