Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The Progressive Goal Attainment Program (PGAP) is a behavioral intervention originally developed in Canada at McGill University in order to increase return to work and community integration for individuals who receive worker's compensation. PGAP is the first disability program that is specifically designed to target the psycho-social risk factors of disability. The premise behind PGAP is that inactivity and attitudinal barriers increase work disability, and these issues are a primary cause of unemployment for individuals with physical and mental disabilities. PGAP is a structured, 10-week intervention that focuses upon helping clients develop a planned activity schedule to assist them in resuming desirable life activities.
