When we questioned the participantsfor the reason to participate in the program, the most frequent response
is“Health motives” (Table 3). The answer to justify why they continued to participate is“I’m better now” and “I can
do more”. Besides that, a big part of them considered the group program has an important way of “… getting out of
home” and “… interacting with other people”, has shown in Table 4. All the participants intended to continue to
participate in the sessions.
