Engage: Trojan Neighbors

Engage: Trojan Neighbors is a community outreach program designed to foster the relationship between USC’s OT graduate students and the surrounding community. We are passionate about the pediatric population! We encourage students to take knowledge from the classroom and gain hands-on experience interacting with youth through volunteering, networking, and exploratory opportunities.

As your friendly neighborhood OTs, we strive to create plenty of opportunities to connect with children and engage in fun, memorable, and meaningful occupations together. We hope to brighten the lives of future generations and partner with community leaders to make a lasting difference. Through creative crafts, outdoor play, inclusive sports, and more, Engage advocates for the promotion of positive social interactions, healthy habits, lifelong learning, and joyful occupations.
