Ex-Offenders Orchestrating Occupational Performances for Community Integration
|
| ||
PURPOSE: Describe the occupational performance patterns of ex-offenders living in a community-based SH program that is designed to reduce recidivism, and generate insights that can be used to design effective OT evaluation and intervention processes for ex-offenders, which support their community reintegration and reduce recidivism.
DESIGN: Longitudinal, exploratory, qualitative study using phenomenological research methodologies.
OBJECTIVES: 1) To describe time use and occupational performance patterns of ex-offenders living in SH and their efforts towards self-sufficiency (e.g., housing stability, employment, training, parenting, etc). 2. To understand ex-offenders’ perspectives of environmental supports and barriers to self-sufficiency. 3. To longitudinally track habits of time use and role participation in various environmental contexts ex-offenders engage in.

Time, Space, and Occupational Patterns: Ex-Offenders' Experiences of Community Reintegration
|
| ||
PURPOSE: Describe the occupational performance patterns of ex-offenders living in a community-based SH program that is designed to reduce recidivism, and generate insights that can be used to design effective OT evaluation and intervention processes for ex-offenders, which support their community reintegration and reduce recidivism.
DESIGN: Phenomenological design using qualitative interviewing.
OBJECTIVES: 1) to understand the lived experience of community reintegration from ex-offenders’ perspectives 2. To understand ex-offenders’ perspectives of environmental supports and barriers to scommunity re-entry. 3) to elicit descriptions of ex-offenders community participation with specific emphasis on how and where they choose to spend their time.
