Experimental: Open Pilot Group
Participants (N=30) will be recruited across two churches, MorningStar Baptist Church and People's Baptist Church, to examine the feasibility and acceptability of the HAIL Online platform.
Participants will complete the 8-week F&S! exercise program (with access to the adjunct HAIL online platform), which will be delivered in-person as well as remote, and then continue to use the HAIL online platform during the 3-mo follow-up.

The Fit and Strong!
Program (F&S!) is an exercise program for older adults developed by a study consultant, Dr. Susan Hughes, with funding from the National Institute of Aging.
It is tailored for the unique needs of older, underserved adults and targets modifiable factors depicted by the socioecological model is necessary.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Feasibility and Retention
Time Frame: Week: 20
|
Retention will be assessed by how many people completed the 3-month post-intervention follow-up
|
Week: 20
|
Acceptability
Time Frame: Week: 0
|
Acceptability will be assessed by:1) Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8), 2) F&S! - online Feedback form, 3) Focus group exit interviews. The CSQ-8 assesses acceptability and feasibility of the F&S!-Online program and has demonstrated good reliability and validity. We will develop a form to ask for tailored feedback on the F&S-Online program to better understand participants' satisfaction with specific aspects of this online program. We will also conduct exit interviews with focus group and pilot study participants |
