My back is broken. My kid is on day 12 of inpatient adolescent psych treatment. Our rental wheelchair van is costing an exorbitant amount with @USAA only covering a fraction of the cost. I hate asking for help. Hate. It. But also, we need it. gofundme.com/f/support-shan…

@ShannonDingle @USAA Oh no, that's a HEAVY load. Ok so many levels. I get the cost of equipment and adapted vehicles. I'll see what we can do.

“We are bound personally to unjust social structures regardless of our social positions and whether we like it or not or chose to be or not.” We need moral imagination, moral courage, and bold maneuvers to address structural injustices - Gayle Restall #MurielDriver at #CAOT2024

I have had the pleasure of having Dr. Gayle Restall, #MurielDriver presenter at #CAOT2024, as one of my earliest mentors in my #OccupationalTherapy and research journey. #SocialJustice resonated with me from the beginning. This award is so well deserved!

Forced addictions treatment is a poor practice that unfortunately comes around again and again. People use small sample anecdotes to justify policy. Evidence-based practice on the other hand notes that treatment needs to be available but also needs to be a choice.

Enforcement does not work! What is also concerning is the lack of compassion in many of the comments following the original post. What has society come to? #homelessness #encampments #EnforcementWillNotWork

No sh*t. Once again - simply clearing encampments & chasing people off does not work. Enforcement. Will. Not. Work.
