Connecting the Use of Sensory Input to Treatment in Mental Health

The Sensory Connection Program was developed to help occupational therapists and other mental health professionals to use sensory input as part of group and individual treatment. The program was designed to be used in acute and long term psychiatric care, substance abuse programs, outpatient community programs, adolescent units, developmental disability settings, and geriatric care.
