Occupational Therapy Society for Invisible and Hidden Disability (OTSi) Membership July 2025-June 2026.

OTSI is a national society whose purpose is to enable Occupational Therapists who work alongside people with invisible disabilities and mental health realities, to reduce barriers to full participation in our world as active citizens of Australia. OTSi is an organisation comprised of AHPRA registered occupational therapists.

Our focus is ensuring access to resources, opportunities, and supports for people with invisible disabilities of all ages, including access to occupational therapy. OTSI has a strong voice in systemic advocacy and policy direction, as well as enabling individuals to build better lives.

The term ‘invisible disability’ is an umbrella term and acknowledges that the impacts of hidden disability are often poorly understood or overlooked. We commit to shining a light on the impact of invisible and hidden disabilities alongside people who experience them, and to work to address barriers to active participation, and barriers to societal recognition and understanding. OTSI approach underscores the importance of empathy and awareness in interactions and accommodations, to build a more inclusive world.
