Participation Criteria
Eligibility Criteria
Ages Eligible for Study
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Genders Eligible for Study
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- have a physical disability (e.g., cerebral palsy, spina bifida, musculoskeletal disorders)
- restricted mobility, such as an inability to navigate all surfaces and stairs independently and safely without the use of aids, physical assistance or external support
Exclusion Criteria:
Youth who are recovering within the first year following a severe brain injury or an orthopedic surgery or botulinum toxin treatment 6 months prior or anticipated during the study period or those with degenerative disorders will be excluded.
Youth with significant intellectual delay will be excluded due to the demands required for completing self-reported assessments.
Youth with co-occurrence of an untreated mental health condition will also be excluded.

Experimental: Community-based activity program
Engagement in 8-week community-based activity program
|
Participants engage in a 8-week community-based activity program of their choice. In order to engage in the selected activity, an Occupational Therapist (OT) will meet with each youth in their home. Using the PREP 5 steps (Make goals; Map out a plan; Make it happen; Measure the process and outcomes; Move forward) the youth will choose a community program. The OT will then search for the appropriate program, identify and remove potential environmental barriers for participation in that activity (e.g., accessibility, equipment) and educate program instructors regarding the youth's specific needs. This process, which includes up to 12 hours of working with the OT, will set the stage for enrolment of the youth in a community program for a period of 8 weeks - the actual intervention phase.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Behavioral Assessment System for Children
Time Frame: 22 weeks
|
Evaluates cognitive and affective body functions using a 4-point scale.
T-scores range from 0 to 120 in which lower scores indicate greater cognitive and affective body functions.
|
22 weeks
|
Trunk Impairment Scale
Time Frame: 22 weeks
|
Assesses trunk control and includes 3 sub-scales; static sitting balance, dynamic sitting balance and coordination.
It contains 17 items rated on a 2-, 3- or 4- point scale.
Total score measures motor body functions in terms of trunk control.
Total score ranges from 0 (low performance) to 23 (high performance).
|
22 weeks
|
Functional Reach Test
Time Frame: 22 weeks
|
Assesses motor body functions in terms of reaching.
The maximum distance in inches the participant can reach forward while standing/sitting in a fixed position is measured; units: inches.
|
22 weeks
|
Jamar/Handheld micro Force Evaluation and Testing 2 (microFET2) Dynamometers
Time Frame: 22 weeks
|
Measures motor body functions in terms of maximal grip, pinch strength and isometric muscle strength; units: pounds of force.
Scores range from 0 to 200 pounds.
|
22 weeks
|
Goniometer
Time Frame: 22 weeks
|
Measures active range of motion of specific joints relevant to the activity and based on the task analysis; units: degrees of range of motion.
|
22 weeks
|
Canadian Occupational Performance Measure
Time Frame: 22 weeks
|
10-point scale that measures activity performance.
Score ranges from 1 (unable to perform) to 10 (performs extremely well).
|
22 weeks
|
Other Outcome Measures

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Life-Habits (LIFE-H)
Time Frame: This outcome will be assessed once at baseline only (week 1).
|
Evaluates participation accomplishments in daily activities and social roles using a 4-point scale.
Scores range from 1 (not accomplished) to 4 (accomplished with no difficulty).
|
This outcome will be assessed once at baseline only (week 1).
