June is Pride Month, a time to celebrate and support the LGBTQIA+ community and their rights. As we close the month of June, I invited occupational therapist Dr. Kevin Wegner to The JEDI Zone to discuss what Pride means to him and his lived experience as a gay male occupational therapist.
JEDI: What does it mean? AND No, I’m not referring to Star Wars…. I’m talking about justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. These words encompass a lot, and for this first episode, I break down the meaning to help everyone understand why these concepts are vital to the occupational therapy profession.
