The THRIVE study is a healthy retail intervention that improves the food environments in
tribally owned and operated convenience stores in the Chickasaw Nation and Choctaw Nation of
Oklahoma.
tribally owned and operated convenience stores in the Chickasaw Nation and Choctaw Nation of
Oklahoma.
The THRIVE study is a cluster randomized trial, using a community-based participatory
research approach, of "healthy makeovers" in eight convenience stores owned and operated by
the Chickasaw Nation and Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. The study will test the ability of
tribal nations to increase fruit and vegetable purchasing and consumption among tribal
members through environmental and policy approaches. Investigators hypothesize that tribal
members exposed to the highest doses of the intervention (i.e. those who visit the
intervention convenience stores the most) will increase their fruit and vegetable intake.
Individual-level changes in fruit and vegetable intake will be measured via a survey
administered to a cohort of 1600 American Indian shoppers before and after the intervention.
A multimedia manual, Website, and documentary film will be created as part of the
implementation of THRIVE to engage tribal citizens, enhance local knowledge, and guide other
tribes to improve their food and physical activity environments.
