Abstract

Date Presented 03/26/20

We will share methods and lessons learned from engaging stakeholders in three US regions and connecting them nationally to build research capacity and partnerships. Research-capacity building is aimed at identifying stakeholder-driven priorities and outcomes in relation to organization-level OT interventions, how these interventions facilitate community participation, and ultimately impact health and well-being of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
