COVID Cautious Art Therapists: A Working List
This form is to create a working list for art therapists who are COVID-cautious to connect with each other and for clients to find you for this reason. It was created by a TATI student with the intention of being shared more broadly among art therapy and COVID Cautious circles. While COVID safety measures protect us from COVID-19, they also protect us from cold/flu/RSV and other illnesses that can also be disabling, particularly for immunocompromised and disabled community members.
