USI OTA students had the opportunity to tour Arc Industries, a division of The Arc of Evansville, where individuals with developmental disabilities receive job training and employment in packaging, assembly, and distribution.
This visit showed students how occupational therapy supports meaningful work, promotes independence, builds confidence, and helps individuals reach personal and professional goals.
They witnessed how OT principles like task adaptation, skill building, and inclusion are applied in a real-world industrial setting—proving that work can be both therapeutic and empowering.
Thank you, Arc Industries, for the inspiring experience! 💼💙
