Abstract
  • Background: Northview Church Carmel serves a diverse population within their Special Needs Ministry. Those served would benefit from a system to enhance community engagement and increase social participation with their typically developing peers. Introduction: The author developed resources including social scripts and social stories to increase social participation. Project Design: A pre-test/post-test was utilized to examine knowledge of social participation resources before and after intervention. Six Special Needs Ministry volunteers participated in testing. Outcomes: Participants demonstrated an increase in knowledge and understanding of social participation resources following intervention. Participants scored a 35% increase in mean, a 30% increase in median, and a 30% increase in mode scores from pre-test to post-test. Participants scored a mean of 92%, with median and mode scores of 90%. Conclusions: Future research should examine the impact of OT within church programs and worship settings. Results of this project support integration of OT in the church.
