Brief Summary: This study aims to address treatment and service disparities and prevent disability among racial/ethnic and linguistic minority elders. It tests the effectiveness and implementation readiness of the Positive Minds-Strong Bodies Enhanced intervention (PMSB-E), a combined mental and physical health intervention designed to be implemented in low-resource community settings. This renewal grant project includes a streamlined intervention with new components designed to improve and maintain participant outcomes.
Detailed Description: The Positive Minds-Strong Bodies Enhanced intervention addresses the dual challenges of mental health and physical disability among minority elders. The core Positive Minds intervention includes 10 sessions offered by Community Health Workers over a maximum of 6 months, designed to identify and correct negative distortions or cognitions, promote behavioral activation and encourage supportive relationships. Strong Bodies is a 36-session physical intervention consisting of a series of exercises conducted while wearing a weighted vest in a group setting over 6 months; both interventions include a group maintenance component to maintain gains. The investigators will evaluate the acceptability, effectiveness and twelve-month sustainability of the Enhanced Positive Minds-Strong Bodies intervention (E-PMSB) offered by Community Health Workers (CHWs) and Exercise Trainers in community-based organizations (CBOs) and community clinics. The intervention is offered in English, Spanish, Mandarin or Cantonese.
