Join us for the 22nd International 3S Symposium as we discuss ?the primary role sensory processing and sensory motor integration ?play in everything that we do and what that means for participation, function and self-actualization.

?Speakers from across a variety of disciplines will delve into the interplay of sensory processing and sensory motor experience with mental health domains and meaningful participation. This knowledge will transform your clinical practice by reframing challenging behaviors, supporting improved function and maximizing experiences of success for your clients and their families. 

Explore the crucial role sensory processing/sensory motor experience plays in shaping human development. We will examine the impact of sensation on ‘sense of self’ and self-agency. An expanded focus will include how the ‘self’ interacts within the external environment. Discover how both positively affect the individual’s relationships within the family and the community, as well as positively grow the individual’s physical capacities to interact in the world.

This conference is designed for clinicians, researchers and professionals working with neurodiverse populations, including: occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech language pathologists, educators, child development specialists and mental health professionals. We also welcome parents, caregivers and carers, as well as individuals with disordered sensory processing.

Professionals may also choose to attend the Pre-Symposium Professional Workshop* or Pre-Symposium Parent Workshop taking place the day before the Symposium.

*The November 14, 2019 Pre-Symposium Professional Workshop will not be livestreamed.
