Early CCLAD Participants
Subjects receiving Early CCLAD intervention
Non Early CCLAD Participants
As this was the pilot study/feasibility trial, the study design was not intended to compare the intervention group to a control group. This pilot study did not have a control group. This group represents subjects not receiving the Early CCLAD intervention. Although they were initially eligible, they were unable to be enrolled for a variety of reasons, such as distance to clinic or not living close to other Early CCLAD group members. We provide this data to compare pilot study participants to non-participants, not as a control group.

Depression measured via Patient health questionnaire depression assessment (PHQ-9); 9 questions with 0-3 score for each answer. Interpretation of score: 0-4= minimal or no depression; 5-9= mild depression; 10-14=moderate depression. For this study, we considered a positive screen for depression as a PHQ-9 score of \>=10. This analysis includes only those who participated in baseline and 6 month surveys.

Social Support measured via Social support (BS6) scale; 6 questions with scores 1-4 for each answer; Interpretation of total score: 6-11= low (a positive screen for lack of social support), 12-17=moderate (at least occasional support); 18-23= high; 24=very high (maximum, always supported). For this study we considered \<= 11 as a positive screen for low of social support. This analysis includes only those who participated in baseline and 6 month surveys.
