My Health Coach (FASD)
Health & Fitness
Free · Designed for iPad
My Health Coach is currently only available to users enrolled in our Randomized Controlled Trial. To learn more about the study visit https://myhealthcoach.app.
My Health Coach offers adults with FASD evidence-based education about their condition and tools to promote their own self-management and health advocacy goals. My Health Coach is grounded in self-determination theory and integrates well-established behavior change strategies. It uses a just-in-time adaptive intervention design and a simple and engaging chatbot interface. This will provide adults just the right type and amount of support, when they are most receptive.
This project is a partnership with identified leaders in the adult FASD community, known as the Adult Leadership Collaborative (ALC). Their motto is: “Nothing About Us Without Us.”
This study is led by Drs. Christie Petrenko and Cristiano Tapparello. Dr. Petrenko is faculty at Mt.
