The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of the Graded Repetitive Arm Supplementary Program (GRASP) with the usual care on upper extremity function in individuals with stroke.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Stroke participants will receive either the GRASP program or Usual Care for four weeks (3 sessions/week). Stroke participants will be evaluated before, immediately after, and 3 months after the intervention. Therapist participants will be trained for the delivery of the GRASP program. Interviews and surveys/questionnaires will be administered to understand patients' and therapists' perspectives on the implementation of the GRASP program.

| Fugl Meyer Assessment (upper extremity) | The Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) is one of the most widely used assessment to quantify upper extremity sensorimotor impairment. It includes items related to movements of the shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist, and hand and is based on a 3-point scale (0 cannot perform; 1 can perform partially; 2 can perform fully). The total scores range between 0 and 66, with a higher FMA-UE score indicating less motor impairment. | though study completion, an average of 4 months |
