A Survey of LGBTQIA+ Experiences in the Field of Occupational Therapy for WFOT 2018 |
Invitation and Informed Consent
You are invited to participate in a research study exploring the unique experiences of LGBTQIA+ identified clinicians in the field of Occupational Therapy.
The information gathered will be integrated into the presentation “The Lonely Voice: A call for LGBTQIA+ identity integration, inclusivity and advocacy to diversify the workforce within the OT profession,” which will be presented at World Federation Occupational Therapy conference. Our goal is for this preliminary exploration to serve as a stepping stone toward demonstrating a need for improved education and advocacy of LGBTQIA+ issues in the Occupational Therapy profession. The findings will contribute to the body of knowledge on LGBTQIA+ concerns as they relate to the field of OT, and provide valuable information on tools, procedures, and approaches that are currently being used to promote diversity and inclusion in the field.
The survey should take approximately 10 minutes and your responses are completely anonymous. You may take the survey only once, and it will be open until March 1, 2018.
We greatly appreciate your input.
