Table 1. Responses to Potential Barriers to Dissemination.

Potential Barrier*	Response
Lack of a manualized curriculum targeting obesity prevention in preschool age children	Hip-Hop is manualized and packaged with l an accompanying tool box
Delivery staff may have other competing responsibilities	Delivery of diet-related curriculum is the primary responsibility of EFNEP and SNAP-Ed staff
High level of staff expertise often required	Hip-Hop curriculum has been taught to and implemented by other paraprofessional staff who did not have particular expertise related to the intervention
Interventions are often not flexible	Hip-Hop can be adapted for delivery in a variety of settings and formats
Intervention may not be appropriate for the target population	Hip-Hop was developed specifically for use with the target population (i.e., low-income preschool children and their parents)
Organization and intervention philosophies are often not aligned	The philosophies of the investigative team and the EFNEP and SNAP-Ed programs are aligned, and leadership and staff of the organizations have been involved in the development of the proposed approach
Organizations often cannot implement the intervention adequately	The EFNEP and SNAP-Ed delivery staff have significant experience in receiving training for and delivering similar interventions to low-income families
