As a result of the continued emphasis on health promotion and prevention, it is important for the occupational therapist to be cognizant of community health and human service agencies and how they serve the needs of individuals with special needs. This course will expose the student to community based models of service provision and provide interaction with local agencies. A proposal for and occupational therapy based program will be developed and the process for securing external funding (that can serve as a fiscal resource for practice) will be examined Prerequisites: Admission to the occupational therapy program and successful completion of all previous courses in the curriculum, or permission of the program director.
