After 2.5 years, vegetable and fruit intakes improved from 2.3 to 3.6 servings/day (p1⁄40.019), a demonstration of community members’ enhanced capacity in independently delivering the program. Conclusions: The success strategies for program sustainability generated through this research partnership may be helpful to other communities facing similar circumstances. The lessons learned can also be used in the implementation of new health promotion strategies. Long-term improvements in vegetable and fruit intakes demonstrate improved nutrition capacity as a result of the participatory research.
