Lesson delivery format was reported at baseline assessment. Number of lessons was reported at the one year follow-up assessment. The control group did not receive lessons. A minimum of 4 lessons was required to have completed the intervention. Only treatment group participants were included in the mixed multiple linear regression modeling. Cells do not always add to total sample size due to missing data. § p-values reported for lesson delivery format and number of lessons are from the type 3 test of fixed effects. The p-value reported for SNAP-Ed educator is from the random effect covariance parameter estimate. Abbreviations: SNAP-Ed, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education.
