What Occupational Therapy resources are in my area?

Many of the links below are to national or provincial colleges or associations/societies. While both the colleges and associations/societies have some information in common (e.g., where you can find a rehabilitation professional in your area), there are some differences as well. The college is where you would go to file a complaint against a rehabilitation professional, and would find information such as any rehabilitation professionals who have been suspended. associations/societies generally have information for the public about what the rehabilitation profession does, and the benefits of their treatment.
