Cognitive Strategies for Optimizing Brain Health And Managing Transgenerational Vascular Risk Factors Post-Stroke

Persons with stroke ( n=20) and at least 1 targeted family member (TFM) (n=20) will engage with the CHAMPS-TR protocol which involves 10 virtual intervention sessions (bi-weekly for 5 weeks) with key elements including metacognitive problem-solving training (i.e., goal setting, guided discovery, strategy development) and vascular risk reduction coaching building on existing American Heart Association (AHA) LE8 content. Probands that are eligible for RS-tDCS (n=10) will receive 5x weekly (weeks 2-5) RS-tDCS applied to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC).
