Our mission is to promote, expand, and advance professional knowledge, skills, and research in functional cognition and cognitive rehabilitation approaches, with an emphasis on the Multicontext approach. The Multicontext approach was developed by Joan Toglia PhD, OTR/L, FAOTA. It focuses on promoting metacognitive skills and cognitive strategy use across functional activities for those who experience functional cognitive challenges within the context of everyday life, due to an illness, acquired brain injury, learning or information processing difficulties. More about this approach can be learned here, or from our publications page, or our recent book. We are committed to promoting clinical excellence and best practices through resources, training, updated publications, research, and materials that will ultimately improve the quality of rehabilitation services and optimize outcomes, participation, and well-being for those who experience cognitive challenges.
We aim to provide:
A broad range of practical and functional cognitive resources and tools for OT clinicians, educators, students, researchers, or other health professionals.
Updated research, information, and evidence-based practices.
High-quality professional development activities and courses that include a variety of evidence-based strategies for the assessment and treatment of functional cognitive skills.
Specialized training, education, coaching, support, and tools for clinicians and researchers to use the Multicontext approach with high fidelity.
