Description
Aim of the GroupWe are an interest group for people who love working beyond the city walls and want to build community with the many other occupational therapists who love it too. We are a friendly and supportive space for regional, rural, and remote therapists to:
- develop networks and knowledge
- share evidence, case examples, learnings, and wins, and
- advocate for regional, rural, and remote practice, people, and places.
Meeting Schedule
Members of this Interest Group are invited to participate in quarterly sessions on Tuesday evenings.
IG members will receive an email invitation to upcoming meetings. To attend a meeting you must register online. Links to the registration page are provided in the invitation email, or click here to view all upcoming Interest Group meetings.
