Process evaluation of Healthy Bodies , Healthy Souls : a church-based health intervention program in Baltimore City . Soaring obesity rates in the United States demand comprehensive health intervention strategies that simultaneously address dietary patterns , physical activity , psychosocial factors and the food environment . Healthy Bodies , Healthy Souls ( HBHS ) is a church-based , community-participatory , cluster-randomized health intervention trial conducted in Baltimore City to reduce diabetes risk among urban African Americans by promoting healthy dietary intake , increased physical activity and improvement to the church food environment . HBHS was organized into five 3-8-week phases : Healthy Beverages , Healthy Desserts , Healthy Cooking , Healthy Snacking and Eating Out and Physical Activity . A three-part process evaluation was adopted to evaluate implementation success : an in-church instrument to assess the reach , dose delivered and fidelity of interactive sessions ; a post-intervention exposure survey to assess individual-level dose received in a sample of congregants and an evaluation form to assess the church food environment . Print materials were implemented with moderate to high fidelity and high dose . Program reach was low , which may reflect inaccuracies in church attendance rather than study implementation issues . Intervention components with the greatest dose received were giveaways ( 42.0-61.7 % ) , followed by taste tests ( 48.7-53.7 % ) and posters ( 34.3-65.0 % ) . The dose received of general program information was moderate to high . The results indicate successful implementation of the HBHS program .
