Brief Summary: The investigators aim to conduct a fully powered randomized controlled trial to compare the efficacy of two symptom management programs for older adults with early cognitive decline either self-reported or confirmed by testing and chronic pain Active Brains 1 and Active Brains 2 The investigators will assess how each program may help in improving multimodal physical cognitive and emotional function The investigators will also assess whether improvements in outcomes from the two programs are maintained through 6-months follow-up The investigators will also explore whether improvements in outcomes are mediated by nonadaptive pain reactions adaptive coping social factors and compensatory strategies and modified by demographic and clinical predictors Both programs will be delivered virtually Zoom
