Listen "Episode 36: Wholistic Occupational Therapy with Criminalized Populations: Remembering our Humanity"
Episode Synopsis
In Episode 36 of OT Conversations that Matter: The Podcast, host Justine Jecker and occupational therapist Crystal Dieleman, explore holistic occupational therapy service provision with persons in prison and forensic mental health settings, and with clients who have a criminal record. Today, 1 in 7 adult Canadians have a criminal record, but are not in prison or forensic settings. This discussion sheds light on how societal factors influence participation in criminal occupations and emphasizes the need for OTs/OTAs to address personal and professional biases and provide equitable care to all individuals, regardless of their past experiences.
