For the proposal, these positions would include a first and second year chair! 


Specific upcoming project: Front porch – serves older adult community members that utilize consumer tech to improve the quality of services they offer. This project starts around January – February with google maps hubs into the units of older adult residents in a few low-income properties. They would like to recruit volunteers, specifically OT students to assist in how to utilize this tech. This would involve helping lead and coordinate volunteers.


No specific vision to work with other partners at the moment. This allows creative freedom for the individual in this position. Emphasis on how OTs can utilize assistive technology in their services! Opportunity to attend to the needs to the student population and can play a role in advocacy with the students!
