The second is a PCORI-funded, community-partnered study that will test comparative effectiveness of two widely used behavioral interventions to address physical functioning (mindfulness-based cognitive therapy plus walking vs. active living every day) among community-based Black older adults with co-morbid chronic pain and early cognitive decline. Both are planned to run for 5 years, with the potential for renewal of the RCMAR.
