participation, and health disparities"

Tuesday, October 4, 2022

7:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Don’t Look Up is a political satire starring Jennifer Lawrence, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Meryl Streep, among others, about an impending catastrophic world disaster in the form of a giant comet heading straight to Earth. When the President of the US - played by Streep greets the scientists to learn about their concerns she says: “I hear there’s an asteroid or comet or something that you don’t like the looks of. Tell me about it, and then tell me about why you are telling me about it.”

In this presentation, Dr. VanPuymbrouck will be telling you about Upstream OT and then tell you about why and possibly a bit of how Upstream OT can target function, occupational participation, and health disparities.
