Brief description of study

STEP Together is a research study about increasing physical activity among families in and around Philadelphia.

This study may be a good fit for you if you and your family are not physically active and want to start moving more – whether for your health, enjoyment or to spend time together. If you do not have family in the Philadelphia area, you may be eligible to enroll with a close friend or group of close friends.

Participants will be asked to complete the following research procedures: complete several short surveys at enrollment and at three time points during the study, and wear a Fitbit watch to track physical activity and sleep patterns for 18 months. Participants receive a prepaid cash card for completing surveys.
