Summary

In light of the obesity epidemic in persons with serious mental illness (SMI), there is an urgent need to scale-up behavioral interventions that have demonstrated efficacy in the clinical trial setting such as the intervention in the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)-funded Achieving Healthy Lifestyles in Psychiatric Rehabilitation (ACHIEVE) trial. To increase ease of adoption and sustained implementation of ACHIEVE in community mental health programs, the format needs to be adapted for delivery by community mental health staff. Based on the investigators' experience conducting the ACHIEVE trial, this study team had modified the ACHIEVE intervention into a new ACHIEVE curriculum appropriate for community mental health settings. Therefore, the investigators will pilot test 8 weeks of this curriculum in a community-based psychiatric rehabilitation program (PRP) to determine whether this format is acceptable to participating PRP consumers with SMI as well as PRP staff and peer leaders.

ACHIEVE

The investigators will test two modules of the adapted video-assisted curriculum format of 45 to 60-minute multipurpose classes, which will include a segment on group weight management (\~20-30 minutes) and group exercise (\~20-30 minutes). Within each module, the group weight management topic varies by week, and within each week the content of the three weight management groups builds gradually and is purposely repeated. Within each module, the group exercise classes will focus on mild to moderate intensity aerobic exercise using an exercise video. In this pilot study, a trained study interventionist will deliver the ACHIEVE-D curriculum.
