To date, few dissemination and implementation (D\&I) studies exist of successful healthy eating interventions delivered through restaurant settings. Therefore, the proposed study will investigate the following aims: Aim 1: Examine reach and adoption of a modified, 12-week NEW Soul vegan intervention delivered through a train-the-trainer approach in a soul food vegan restaurant. Aim 2: Assess resource use and cost associated with a train-the-trainer D\&I approach in a restaurant setting. Aim 3: Examine effectiveness through changes in participants' diet, self-efficacy, weight loss, and quality of life from baseline to follow-up (3-months) and at maintenance (9-months). Aim 4: Assess implementation fidelity and participant satisfaction of modified NEW Soul.
