Occupational therapy (OT) is a healthcare service designed to help individuals increase independent living skills and improve wellbeing. OT alone cannot solve the homelessness crisis but you cannot solve the homelessness crisis without OT. Dr. Tyminski is interested in improving occupational participation and quality of life for populations experiencing marginalization through providing occupation-based services targeted at improving life skills and community re-integration. She collaborates with local community agencies to provide programming to address concerns of occupational justice related to increased participation in survival occupations among those experiencing mental illness, homelessness, or recent return to community from incarceration. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
