Abstract
  • In this capstone project, I addressed the mental health and overall wellness of Core Members, adults with developmental and/or intellectual disabilities, at CASS Housing using a variety of mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral, sensory modulation, and emotional regulation techniques. CASS Housing creates independent living solutions for these individuals, but Core Members face social and behavioral difficulties due to mental health disparities in this population. This need led to the development of my occupation-based, six-session mental health program called Promoting Healthy Minds which included sessions on emotional regulation, journaling, yoga and meditation, sensory modulation, and self-esteem. Following the program, participants indicated learning and increased confidence in areas of emotional regulation, mindfulness, strategies to improve self-esteem, and the sensory system. Future program developers can use this program as a guide for intervention strategies to address mental health disruptions and, therefore, improve overall occupational participation in this population.
