Health Engagement & Access Through Learning, Training, and Health-coaching With People With Intellectual and/or Developmental Disabilities

{ "Health Engagement & Access Through Learning, Training, and Health-coaching With People With Intellectual and/or Developmental Disabilities", "This study is looking at whether a program called Comprehensive Community Health can improve health and access to healthcare for adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. This program combines health coaching and education within Special Olympics activities. Researchers will compare this to the usual Special Olympics programming. You might be able to join if you are a Special Olympics athlete between 21 and 65 years old, have an intellectual or developmental disability, and have a family member or care partner who can participate with you. The study will measure success by looking at changes in your personal health goals over 18 months. The current status of this study is unclear.", "design": "This interventional study plans to enroll 1040 participants.

  • Change in Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS)Baseline to 1, 3, 6, 12, and 18 months

    GAS is measured using three participant-identified goals, each assigned a priority weight from 1 to 3 (3=most important goal to participant). At each assessment, each goal is assigned a score from -2 to +2, with 0 representing expected level of attainment and 2 indicating much more than expected level of attainment; goals are assigned a score of -2 at baseline. GAS score levels across all three participant goals are converted into a standardized single GAS T-score for each participant. The range of possible T-scores is 23.56 (all three goals with GAS score of -2) to 76.44 (all three goals with GAS score of +2).
