Summary

This trial seeks to understand how engaging in meaningful activities can improve physical, behavioral and emotional health in youth with physical disabilities.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for youth with physical disabilities like cerebral palsy, spina bifida, or juvenile arthritis in Quebec or Ontario. Participants should have restricted mobility but can't join if they're recovering from severe brain injury, recent orthopedic surgery, botulinum toxin treatment within the last 6 months, have degenerative disorders or untreated severe mental health conditions.
What is being tested?
The study tests an 8-week personalized community-based activity program to see if it improves motor skills and emotional and behavioral functions among youths with physical disabilities. The activities are chosen by the participants themselves to gauge motivation and overall well-being improvement.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves engagement in various activities rather than medication, there aren't typical side effects as seen with drugs. However, there might be risks of overexertion or injury depending on the activity chosen.
