OTs for OuTreach

OTs for OuTreach aims to build and strengthen the sense of community for LGBTQ students and allies by providing opportunities for social engagement and professional development. Through volunteer experiences, OTs for OuTreach members enhance the presence and reach of occupational therapy by developing programs and implementing engaging activities for diverse, marginalized and underserved populations. We have previously worked with the USC LGBT Resource Center, the Los Angeles LGBT Youth Center, and the Los Angeles County Central Juvenile Hall.

Membership and volunteer opportunities are open to all students in the Chan Division of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy. For more information, or to suggest a community that might benefit from our focus, please contact a member of the executive board via email or connect with us on Facebook.
