This study examines geographic and demographic patterns of hypertension in Nashville, Tennessee, to assess how socioeconomic, environmental, and behavioral factors contribute to inequities in prevalence, treatment, and control. Granular ZIP code-level analyses highlight community-specific drivers and the need for policy reforms to advance health equity.Methods and results: Using 2022 data from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey and CDC PLACES, we analyzed 199 Nashville ZIP codes. K-means clustering identified five population clusters. Lower-income clusters (e.g., Hardship Heartland: 37.2% hypertension prevalence; Urban Renters: 33.7%) exhibited elevated physical inactivity (30.9%), insufficient sleep (38.9%), smoking (22.6%), alongside limited healthcare access. Affluent clusters (Elite Enclaves: 30.8%) demonstrated better cardiovascular health. Non-Hispanic Black residents in urban cores faced disproportionately higher hypertension rates (35.4%) compared to non-Hispanic white residents in the same clusters (e.g., 43.8% white residents in Urban Renters).Conclusions: Structural inequities-poverty, housing instability, and unequal healthcare access-drive hypertension disparities. Multi-sector interventions targeting upstream SDOH (e.g., affordable housing, equitable healthcare, and community wellness programs) are critical to reduce cardiovascular risk. Policy reforms prioritizing place based strategies in high-burden communities could mitigate disparities and improve population health.","PeriodicalId":47183,"journal":{"name":"Family & Community Health","volume":"49 2","pages":"64-74"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12908637/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146207962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Vaccine hesitancy, which increased during the COVID-19 pandemic, contributes to low immunization coverage despite higher prevalence of and increased risk for severe illness due to vaccine-preventable diseases among rural minoritized adults.Objective: Public health efforts to reduce vaccine hesitancy among rural Black Americans require understanding the factors that contribute to vaccine confidence and vaccine uptake. This study identifies how multilevel factors influence vaccine confidence and uptake among rural Black American adults in 3 Northeast Florida counties.Methods: Four focus groups (N = 34) were conducted, audio-recorded, transcribed, and open-coded in MAXQDA 2022. The social ecological model was used to guide analysis and provide insight into contextual factors influencing vaccine knowledge and confidence, and trust in vaccines.Results: Results show that multilevel variables influence vaccine confidence among rural Black Americans. Social factors, specifically social networks, shape an individual's perception of vaccines at all levels of the social ecological model.Conclusion: Public health interventions to increase vaccine uptake among rural Black adults should focus on social networks to enhance the credibility of the information provided by experts.","PeriodicalId":47183,"journal":{"name":"Family & Community Health","volume":" ","pages":"90-100"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146100778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Healthy Eating for My Infant addressed nutrition/feeding education, behavior-change techniques, and mental health/stress as related to infant feeding through 6 home visits with health behavior coaches and family support peers and text messaging support with other program mothers. Fifteen mother-infant dyads enrolled in a home visiting program serving primarily families from marginalized backgrounds were randomized to receive HEMI in a small feasibility trial.Results: Delivery of HEMI was feasible with high retention (86.7%) and session completion (84.0%). Families reported high acceptability of the program; health behavior coaches and family support peers delivering the program perceived that HEMI was helpful for families and that families felt heard and supported.Conclusion: Healthy Eating for My Infant serves as an example of a multiphase community-engaged approach to develop future programs targeting health behavior change among children and families from marginalized backgrounds.","PeriodicalId":47183,"journal":{"name":"Family & Community Health","volume":"49 1","pages":"26-39"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145641047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, this paper investigated parent-reported accuracy of parental perceptions of child's PA levels and examined whether these perceptions influence their social support toward PA.Methods: This is a secondary analysis of cross-sectional data from the 2019-2020 Texas SPAN survey of second-grade children and their parents.Results: Parents who were physically active with their second-grade child most or all of the time had over 2 times the odds or over 3 times the odds, respectively, of their children meeting adequate PA levels. Latinx/Hispanic parents had 33% lower odds of their children participating in adequate PA levels compared to white parents. We found no significant associations for the other types of social support.Conclusion: This study underscores the significance of involving parents in promoting PA among children, particularly through the provision of instrumental and direct support mechanisms. Culturally sensitive interventions that address parental perceptions and promote support may improve PA among Latinx/Hispanic children. The results emphasize the importance of prioritizing instrumental support over mere encouragement and underscore the necessity of addressing parental misperceptions through educational materials and programs.","PeriodicalId":47183,"journal":{"name":"Family & Community Health","volume":"49 1","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145641007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because social disadvantage can pose substantial barriers to engaging in healthy lifestyle behaviors and increase obesity risk, it's particularly important to help families facing such circumstances support optimal early nutrition. Although some studies have found relevant health messaging to be effective, little previous research has focused on the mechanisms underlying successful messaging. The current study involved semi-structured interviews with pregnant women (n = 8) and mothers of children aged 0-24 months (n = 27) who were members of minoritized socio-economic or racial or ethnic groups with relatively high rates of childhood obesity. Study goals included developing an enhanced understanding of caregiver decision-making and potential obstacles to engaging in recommended behaviors to support optimal early nutrition, as well as identifying likely mechanisms underlying caregiver responses. Thematic analysis identified multiple determinants of caregiver responses related to internal or psychological factors, environmental obstacles, and individual needs. Findings may have implications for future health-focused messaging campaigns aimed at pregnant women and caregivers of young children, particularly for groups at greatest risk for childhood obesity.","PeriodicalId":47183,"journal":{"name":"Family & Community Health","volume":"49 1","pages":"14-25"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145641022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Logistic regression analysis assessed factors related to meeting PA recommendations, including demographic characteristics, barriers to PA, injunctive norms, perceived behavioral control, intention, and descriptive norms measured via SNA.Results: 40.6% (n = 99) of participants met minimum PA recommendations. Higher perceived behavioral control (OR = 1.47, P < .001), intention (OR = 1.16, P = .01), having more female network members (OR = 1.02, P = .04) and more network members who were active with the participant (OR = 1.03, P < .001) were associated with increased odds of meeting PA recommendations. Network density scores (OR = .04, P < .01), decreased the odds of meeting PA recommendations.Conclusions: Our findings highlight the importance of a person's immediate social context, more so than global social norms, on their PA behavior. In addition to increasing individual-level perceived behavioral control and intentions, efforts aimed at promoting PA should focus on leveraging aspects of social networks that translate to direct social influence on individual behavior.
