OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SERVICES

Our Occupational Therapists and Occupational Therapy Assistants provide direct and consultative services to a wide range of students in member and non-member districts. As related service providers, we support students in their educational environment to improve functional independence in daily activities of academics, sensory motor performance, and social skills.

Child Find/Kindergarten Screenings for motor skills
Sensory Integration certified evaluations as warranted
Direct individual and group therapy for students identified with educational disabilities
Consultation services utilizing a team approach with students, parents, and school staff
Adaptations of materials and classroom modifications to support students access to the regular curriculum including assistive technology as appropriate
