Occupational Therapy
Practitioners and Students
Raising awareness of occupational therapy helps your practice and the profession in general. As more people, including decision makers, better understand the benefits of occupational therapy, the public perception of the value of occupational therapy services will increase.
Would you like to encourage more awareness of what occupational therapy can accomplish? Please donate.
Consumers
Occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants focus on the things you want and need to do in your daily life. Occupational therapy intervention uses everyday life activities (occupations) to promote health, well-being, and your ability to participate in the important activities in your life. This includes any meaningful activity that a person wants to accomplish, including taking care of yourself and your family, working, volunteering, going to school, among many others.
