From the classroom to the community 🌎💙💛 Widener OT students are making a difference in Belize! 🇧🇿

Through service, connection, compassion, and hands-on learning, our students had the opportunity to use the power of occupational therapy to support children and families while growing into more culturally responsive future clinicians. 🫶🏽

So proud of the impact they made and the memories, lessons, and relationships they’re bringing home. This is OT beyond borders! 🌍✨

Learning doesn't always happen in the classroom! 🌳🛝

Our OT1 students headed to the playground with Dr. Keene and Dr. Navarro-Walker to put **activity analysis** into action! From climbing and swinging to balancing and sliding, students explore how occupations can be graded and adapted for clients of all ages.

Because sometimes the best classroom is a playground. 💙💛
