For Occupational Therapists
Add your program to the California driver evaluation program database!
Californias seniors need support to maintain their driving skills and improve their mobility so they can remain active, independent members of their community. The training of occupational therapists (OTs) puts them in a unique position to be able to help seniors achieve these goals. CIPPP works closely with the Occupational Therapy Association of California (OTAC) and the American Occupational Therapy Association to enhance and support this emerging practice area for occupational therapists in California.
