Novel Mobile Resource for Food Insecurity

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a novel text-message-based intervention is a more effective method for providing food resource information to families of recently hospitalized children who are experiencing food insecurity compared to the current standard practice of a paper handout delivered at the time of hospital discharge. The hypotheses the investigators seek to prove are: 1. That the Text Connect intervention will have greater reach and engagement and be more effective in facilitating connection to food resources than receiving a paper handout alone. 2. That the Text Connect intervention will improve household food security to a greater degree than a paper handout alone.
