REBIL is a complex intervention with two essential components: (1) removing environmental barriers and home hazards in the home tailored to the participant's unique abilities and limitations and (2) strategy training with the participant to help participant to be able to identify barriers in the home and community and identify potential resources and strategies to remove the barriers. Treatment includes one assessment session and four 75-minute visits in the home with an occupational therapist over 8 weeks, followed by a 6 -month assessment session by a blinded rater.

BEHAVIORAL

Waitlist Attentional Control

After the 6-month follow-up is completed this group will receive the REBIL intervention.
