Traceability
Every completed goal should trace to a client-stated priority, role, activity, life context, or desired participation outcome.
Participation Goal Plan
Participation Goal Plan is a ready-to-complete-together occupational therapy tool for practitioners and clients. It helps translate a client's narrative and occupational priorities into participation goals tied to meaningful roles, activities, and desired life outcomes.

Draft And Final States
Goals can remain draft while awaiting clearer linkage, client confirmation, or wording revision.
Relevant Limits
The plan is not a goal bank, impairment target list, treatment-plan generator, SMART conversion tool, or outcome scoring system unless source-validated structure is later supplied.
Can clients revise the goals?
Yes. The collaborative view should allow clients to confirm, revise, reject, or add missing priorities so goals reflect what matters to them.
Does the tool generate goals automatically?
No. Goals are drafted through the practitioner-client process and linked to client-stated priorities.
What happens to a goal without a client priority link?
It remains draft or incomplete and should be flagged for review rather than treated as a completed participation goal.
Can impairment-only goals be completed here?
No. Completed goals should remain participation-focused and tied to meaningful occupations or life context.
