About

Pilot study to assess a multi-component intervention to increase physical activity in persons with depression.

Individuals meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled in the 12-week intervention. Intervention components will include self-monitoring, Active Living counseling, and facility access. Blood samples will be collected at baseline. Assessments (anxiety, stress, sleep) and sample collection will also occur at 2 time points during the intervention (Weeks 7 and 13).
