• Offers comprehensive evidence regarding the value of activity along with a wealth of resources to support implementation of an occupation-based intervention
• Includes worksheets that are available for download online to support easy use, as well as links to purpose-made mini videos introducing prospective participants to the 12 topics
• Provides examples of how groupwork can be adapted, as well as suggestions for how assessments can be used to build competence in 1:1 work
• Divides session ideas into quick questions, discussion topics, and options for exploration and reflection
