The material and how it was presented was a little dry. The beginning has a lot of statistics about refugees that is hard for me to process. I am more interested in focusing on how OT can address refugee's needs and what fields OT could expand into in order to address this better.

The presenter’s pace and cadence were conducive to my attention. I appreciate learning basic vocabulary around types of migrants as well as learning about how occupational therapy is implemented in this niche practice. I am doing community organizing work in the neighborhood I grew up in, which has a diverse population of underprivileged citizens and migrants from different parts of the world. The presentation gave me ideas around integrating occupational philosophy in my work. Thank you.

This is currently an important aspect of occupational justice efforts around the world. I would add that occupational therapists have a valuable role to play organizationally in advocating for political policies related to refugees and displaced persons, such as the international movement for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. OT practitioners in the US in particular can be involved in the movement here to immediately stop the US government from supplying Israel with weapons and financial support.

A lot of information about the needs of refugees. It would have been great to have a case study to see what an individual might go through and how an OT would help them navigate/learn to assimilate. In answering the Q of how OT's would go about getting involved, it seems like OT's could make presentations/start conversations with agencies or organizations that already serve immigrants to let them know how we could be of assistance. Also, by acquiring jobs at schools these children attend

Introduction of OT into this space makes so much sense. OT clinical application is well-suited as a profession, to assist refugees by positively advocating on their behalf to the Government resettlement services, empower and identify ways to find meaningful roles - conducting occupational inventories and, ideally, assisting Refugee Services more effectively assist refugee "communities" make use of their pre-migrant role-specific expertise/voacational knowledge to serve their best interests
