Information and Communication Technology Group Intervention
Participants will be given access to a tablet. With this technology, participants will be invited to set personal goals related to using this technology to foster social connection and community participation. Participants will attend a group led by two occupational therapy students and an occupational therapist focused on digital literacy and how to use technology to meet their goals. In the group, participants will learn how to use their device and how to safely access various online resources and tools to support their recovery. Participants will keep their provided devices upon conclusion of the group sessions. Participants will complete quantitative outcome measures at the start and end of the group intervention. Participants will be invited to attend a semi-structured interview one month after the completion of the group about their experiences with the program.
