The 4th Annual Hip Hop & Occupation Summit brought together students, faculty, and professionals for a meaningful conversation at the intersection of culture and care. From student-led presentations to an engaging keynote, the event created space to explore how identity, expression, and community shape the work of occupational therapy.

Attendees had the opportunity to connect, learn, and reflect on the role of Hip Hop in healthcare while building community and expanding their perspective on the field.

Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this experience impactful.
