Giving Opportunities
Families and communities grow stronger when we work together. Sometimes we need to help another person or group, and on another day we may need help.
That's what it's about, helping each other.
At the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine, our job is to educate the next generation of occupation therapists, physical therapist, and speech language pathologists. It's an inspiring program with many opportunities for students to apply what they learn, and to grow and develop as part of our community. When you support our faculty you become part of a community that's making a difference.
