Researchers and practitioners worldwide have advocated for the development of critical perspectives in occupational therapy to examine the structural influences of social exclusion and injustice experienced by individuals, groups, and communities. To take action against social exclusion and injustice, Brazilian occupational therapists have been developing "social occupational therapy," referring to practice that is focused on social issues and funded outside the health system.
This paper presents a Brazilian perspective on the concept and practice of social occupational therapy. Illustrations are drawn from 12 studies, developed between 2008 and 2013, which were completed with socially vulnerable youth through an ongoing university-community engagement partnership in São Carlos, São Paulo State, Brazil.
The authors discuss possibilities and challenges for developing a socially committed, transformative occupational therapy outside the health system.
Occupational therapists may wish to seize opportunities to address social issues and attract funding beyond health services.
全球的研究人员和从业者都主张在职业治疗中发展批判性视角，以审视个人、群体和社区所经历的社会排斥和不公正的结构性影响。为了采取行动应对社会排斥和不公正，巴西的职业治疗师一直在发展“社会职业治疗”，即专注于社会问题且由卫生系统之外提供资金的实践。
本文呈现了巴西对社会职业治疗的概念和实践的观点。例证取自2008年至2013年间开展的12项研究，这些研究是通过巴西圣保罗州圣卡洛斯市一所大学与社区的持续合作关系，针对社会弱势青年完成的。
作者讨论了在卫生系统之外发展具有社会责任感、变革性的职业治疗的可能性和挑战。
职业治疗师不妨抓住机会解决社会问题，并吸引卫生服务之外的资金。
