Physical and social activities contribute to health and wellbeing among all people. This is particularly important among adults and children living with neurological-related disabilities like stroke. Rehabilitation providers like occupational and physical therapists play an important role in promoting health through physical and social activities.
Our mission is to transform rehabilitation’s role in health promotion among people with neurological-related disabilities.
We strive to develop innovative interventions that expand support for physical and social activity in clinical and community settings. We work toward this mission by designing and testing new ways for rehabilitation providers to:
- Facilitate individual physical activity behavior change
- Build social support to enhance long-term physical and social activity involvement, and
- Improve access to inclusive spaces and programs in the community that provide opportunities for physical and social activity.
