PURPOSE To examine the feasibility and efficacy of a theory-driven and family-based program delivered online to promote healthy lifestyles and weights in Chinese American adolescents .

CONCLUSION This web-based behavior program for Chinese American adolescents and their families seems feasible and effective in the short-term . Long-term effects remain to be determined . This type of program can be adapted for other minority ethnic groups who are at high-risk for overweight and obesity and have limited access to programs that promote healthy lifestyles
