Occupational Therapy Australia is the national professional association and peak body representing occupational therapists across Australia. Our members are qualified occupational therapists employed throughout the public and private sectors. They provide health care, vocational rehabilitation, and consultancy to clients. Occupational Therapy Australia provides benefits to its members through access to local professional support and resources and through opportunities to contribute to, and shape, professional excellence. We support our members by providing high-quality, relevant, equitable services focused on their needs. We also work to raise the profile of occupational therapy throughout the wider community. As the national peak body representing occupational therapy, we work with key government agencies, departments, and non-government organisations at federal, state, and local levels to contribute to shaping reforms in health, disability services, aged care, social services, and other relevant areas of public policy. We are a member organisation of the World Federation of Occupational Therapy (WFOT) and collaborate with professional associations in New Zealand, the US, Canada, the United Kingdom, and many other countries to further occupational therapy.
