Aims:  To examine the effectiveness of PREP (Pathways and Resources for Engagement and Participation) knowledge translation (KT)-program on (a) change in practice behaviors and improved knowledge of school-based occupational therapists, and (b) participation of children with disabilities in inclusive education. Methods:  A mixed-methods design was employed. Therapists (n = 39) completed a 30-hour program. Each therapist applied PREP intervention to one child (n = 39) aged 4-15 (Mean = 9.31, SD = 2.4). Therapists’ outcomes included: (a) knowledge of PREP evaluated using a clinical vignette, analyzed descriptively, (b) change in practice behavior measured by the Professional Evaluation and Reflection on Change Tool (PERFECT), analyzed thematically. Change in children’ participation pre- and post-KT-program and during follow-up was measured by the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM), analyzed using ANOVA. Results:  Therapists acquired knowledge of PREP (vignette mean score 17.7/20). PERFECT revealed therapists’ self-perceived changes in practice: incorporating an environmental perspective, expanding partnerships, and redirecting focus on participation. Completing the KT-program was a primary enabler and reason for change. Children’s participation significantly improved post KT-program and during follow-up in both performance (p &lt; 0.001) and satisfaction (p &lt; 0.001). Conclusions.  KT strategies, as illustrated in this study, accelerated the uptake of evidence-based interventions, minimizing existing ’know-do' gaps and promoting children’s health through participation.
