Interventions
Participants in this arm will receive a digital adaptation of FIT families, an evidenced based treatment for adolescent obesity. The social support condition will add one additional participant to the treatment group (i.e., caregiver, youth, community health worker, and social support person). The social support person's role is to review the daily engagement reports and completion of weekly goals and provide encouragement via peer-to-peer messaging in the DWN app. The social support person does not communicate with the CHW or participate in any treatment sessions. This person is selected by the family at the beginning of the study and provides reinforcement to the family through encouraging messages.
