Completed my professional internship at Thrive, which is a community mental health program that is a part of Open Door Group. I worked one-on-one with clients to provide leisure related support to place them in appropriate programs and develop short and long term goals. I planned and facilitate recreation therapy programs both on and off-site, and regularly collaborated with the rest of the team. For my Service Learning Project, I supported the research study already underway at Thrive, by developing a codebook for a subset of the data and participating in higher level data analysis, as well as presenting these findings to the ODG Executive Team.
