This is the national association for occupational therapists. AOTA can provide information about occupational therapy and listings of therapists in your area. SII will provide general information about sensory integration, or provide information on a specific subject, such as treatment efficacy that you can share with your pediatrician. The SI quarterly newsletter is free to members of Sensory Integration International. Each issue includes valuable information for therapists, parents, teachers, and others interested in sensory integration.
Parents receive discount memberships.
SII offers courses for therapists in the evaluation and treatment of sensory integrative dysfunctions, as well as theory courses that are open to all who would like to have more in-depth knowledge of sensory integration. This is an essential reference source and excellent tool for improving communication between parents, therapists and teachers of children receiving sensory integrative assessment or treatment. This manual was designed for classroom motor-related activities. Many parents also find it useful when working with their children at home. A trouble-shooting section provides practical tips to help children who are having difficulty with specific activities such as handwriting, using scissors, etc.
