You are invited to attend the 2010 OT Australia NSW “Occupational Therapy in Mental Health Forum”. This forum has a long history of providing Occupational Therapists working in the field of mental health with an exciting opportunity for professional development and networking.
The program includes two inspiring keynote speakers and a variety of workshops and paper presentations that explore the theme “Recovery and Resilience”. We all know that “being is doing”, and in keeping with our theme we have arranged a special “Activities for Resilience” session.
