Description
The Health Promotion and Rehabilitation Lab at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is attempting to increase sustainable physically active lifestyle in this 8-week online program.
To be eligible, participants must be,
- 18 years or older,
- diagnosed with all subtypes of multiple sclerosis, and
- walk with or without an assistive device.
The research team has employed the current physical activity evidence to devise this user-friendly online program. Our trained peer coaches with MS, who co-designed the program, will work with and support you throughout the program. The program includes 8 weekly modules designed to build and enhance motivation, confidence, ability, and available support from people and environment. Each week, participants will watch a 10-min video, participate in an online group meeting, and do a weekly evaluation. You will be compensated for your participation and time.
