Our mission is to empower communities that care for individuals with disabilities/disabled individuals around the world through training programs in physical, occupational, and speech therapy.
Therapists Beyond Borders was created to unite therapists around the world to support the overwhelming needs of global disability communities via sustainable rehabilitation programming.
We utilize a training-of-trainers model to address the lack of rehabilitation professionals worldwide in relation to the overwhelming need for disability support. We work against the mission trip/voluntourism model because it fails to provide local sustainability.
At our core, we believe that everyone should have access to rehabilitative healthcare and our programs embody this goal. We forge partnerships with local organizations and local physical, occupational, and speech therapists, as well as other healthcare providers, to collaboratively create and execute community and clinician training initiatives.
Our “Understanding Your Disability” program is focused on educating, empowering, and harnessing the benefits of rehabilitation for adults with disabilities and their caregivers.
Our “Caring For Caregivers: Mental Health & Wellness While Supporting Disability” program de-stigmatizes and dispels myths surrounding the causes of disabilities. This impactful training program offers support and tools for parents and caregivers of persons with disabilities, framed with an occupational therapy perspective.
Our "Empowering Your Patient" program educates local healthcare professionals on the importance of empowering their patients with knowledge regarding their disability and rehabilitation.
