The AZLEND program will allow me to learn more about diverse populations, collaborate with other healthcare professionals and visit healthcare facilities within the state. Moreover, I am more eager to offer more efficacious treatment approaches to the children and families with whom I work. The AZLEND prgram will promote my leadership abilities and skills in neurodevelopmental disabilities. I am an occupational therapist at Department of Rehabilitation at The University of Arizona Medical Center and an AZLEND Faculty for Occupational Therapy.
