LEND fellowship

The LEND program is supported by a grant from the Federal Maternal and Child Health Bureau. The Occupational Therapy Department offers a fellowship within the LEND program. The OT Department’s goal is to search for an occupational therapist who demonstrates an interest in their continued learning and research in a variety of areas within occupational therapy and related health care fields. Frequently, the OT LEND fellow is considered an entry level Occupational Therapist (OT I); however, occupational therapists with work experience are also considered.

For more information about this program and how to apply, please refer to LEND program.
