The American College of Lifestyle Medicine's Offering of a Mental Health and Wellbeing Program (The Lift Project) to its Members - Caring for the Carers.

In the wake of COVID-19, the American College of Lifestyle Medicine offered its members an online 10-week multicomponent mental health and wellbeing program (The Lift Project), and extended the invitation to members from sister organizations associated with the Lifestyle Medicine Global Alliance. A total of 1785 members registered for the program, representing 39 countries. The website hosting the program recorded 9815 total visits over the 10 weeks. In a post-program questionnaire completed by 145 participants, 91% agreed or strongly agreed that the program supported their mental wellbeing, and participants reported their wellbeing as higher after the program as compared to its commencement (X = 80.8, < .01). Ninety-four percent of respondents indicated they would recommend the program to a friend. Thematic analysis of open-ended responses included in the post-program evaluation indicated that the participants liked: the structure of the program and content covered; the style of the video presentations; and the practical application of the program. Some participants indicated they would have liked more time to engage with the program and would have enjoyed the provision of group meetings. In conclusion, healthcare organizations can support their members' mental health and wellbeing by offering large-scale, evidence-based interventions.
