Official Volunteering Process of Occupational Therapy Students at ÇEKOM Has Started

Under the supervision of Dr. Beyza Aslı Bilsel, Lecturer, the official volunteering process of third-year Occupational Therapy students Azra Şahin, Ebrar Kiraz, and Sena Ülgi has officially begun. With the visit conducted within this scope, the orientation and planning phase regarding the volunteering activities to be carried out at ÇEKOM was completed.

Through this volunteering program, it is aimed that students will:

• Support children’s activities of daily living,

• Enhance social participation and access to meaningful occupations,

• Contribute to psychosocial support processes from an occupational therapy perspective.

This collaboration provides an important educational opportunity by enabling students to gain community-based practice experience, observe their professional roles in real-life settings, and develop a strong sense of social responsibility.

As the Department of Occupational Therapy, we will continue to carry out community-oriented initiatives and support our students’ professional development through field-based experiences.
