This study evaluates the program outcomes of the Let's Go program. The standardized community mobility program employs multi-modal group and individual sessions to facilitate wellness in older adults.
This study examines the outcomes of Let's Go, a standardized community mobility program which employs group and individual sessions of education, peer interaction, engagement in meaningful occupations, and self-reflections to help individuals understand the importance of community participation and its relationship to well-being. Program outcomes explored include increased confidence in community mobility, increased autonomy outdoors, social life and relationships, frequency of community trips, and decreased social isolation.

| Change in Impact on Participation and Autonomy Questionnaire-Autonomy Outdoors Sub scale | The IPAQ measures an individual's perception of the impact of chronic disability on participation, has good responsiveness and its content, construct, and discriminant validity as well as internal consistency are deemed adequate and verified by Rasch analysis (Magasi & Post, 2010). The content validity of the autonomy outdoors subscale (α = .81) and social life and relationships scale (α = .86) are strong. Internal reliability of the IPAQ on all subscales is high (all Cronbach's alphas >0.8). The individual items on the AO subscale have a test-retest reliability ranging from .69 to .84 and those on the SL subscale ranged from Kw = .71 to .77 (Cardol et al., 1999, Sibley et al., 2006). | Baseline, 4 weeks (program end), 6 month follow up |

| Change in Confidence in community mobility | A Participant Survey was developed by the Primary Investigator in which participants self reported their confidence in community mobility on a Likert Scale |
