Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop a health promotion group intervention to meet the unique health promotion needs of people aging with SCI, to test the efficacy of the adapted intervention program, Living Longer and Stronger with SCI, in a randomized controlled trial and to assess the mechanisms through which the intervention may enhance physical, psychological, and social health.

Conditions

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Living Longer and Stronger with SCI

Study staff will schedule a brief zoom training session with each person assigned to the intervention to ensure that they are able to download and use the Zoom platform. Once a weekly session day and time has been determined the 8-week LLS intervention program will begin. LLS group participants will participate in 2-hour weekly sessions co-facilitated by a study investigator and one of the study's senior advisors. Participants will be encouraged to set a health-oriented goal and complete weekly action plans. They will be provided with materials each week with health-related information and resources. Participants will also be asked to complete a short survey each week to rate the session. After completing the 8 sessions, a link to the post-test survey and some questions to evaluate the LLS program will be sent to the participants. Finally there will be follow up survey to be completed at 4 months post intervention.

BEHAVIORAL

Control

Participants will be sent links to the three surveys at the same time as those assigned to the LLS group but they will not attend any of the zoom calls. They will be offered all study materials at the end of the study.
