Supporting Resilience Among Re-entered Seniors (SRRS)

March 25, 2025 updated by: Stephanie Prost, University of Louisville

The first goal (Aim 1) of this clinical trial is to learn about specific strengths, challenges, and desired areas of knowledge and skill-building among older adults who re-entered their communities from a period of incarceration and to then develop a new psychoeducational intervention tailored to these older adults. The second goal (Aim 2) of this clinical trial is to test if the intervention increases chronic disease management and whether the intervention is considered appropriate and acceptable by older adults who re-entered their communities from a period of incarceration.

Aim 1 participants will:

  • complete a baseline survey
  • participate in a focus group

Aim 2 participants will:

  • complete a baseline survey
  • participate in an 8-week once weekly intervention
  • complete three follow up surveys
