Every summer, our third-year students volunteer in Moultrie, GA with the Farm Worker Family Health Program (FWFHP), an interdisciplinary initiative dedicated to providing quality healthcare to Georgia’s farmworkers and their families.

This year, our students and faculty provided pro bono physical therapy services, including thorough evaluations, manual therapy, and exercise prescription. Beyond the clinical experience, our students were incredibly grateful for the opportunity to serve this community and learn from the resilience and kindness of the patients they met.

We are so thankful to be part of a DPT program that values service, community wellness, and meaningful opportunities like this. Thank you to our donors who supported us through crowdfunding and helped make this experience possible. Your generosity allows our students to learn, serve, and make a difference in the lives of others.

If you ate today, thank a farmworker! 🌱❤️

Welcome DPT 2029!!! We had a blast at Indian Creek for this year’s team building activities! We hope you were able to start making bonds that will last throughout your time here in the program. Have a great first day of classes on Monday!

Oh, all the places they’ll go! On Tuesday, our Class of 2026 graduated and officially became Doctors of Physical Therapy! We are honored to have watched them grow over the past three years, and we know that they’ll make an incredible impact to their future patients. Congratulations to all of them! We are so proud!

We have officially launched our crowdfunding project, Georgia State DPT Service Trip to Moultrie 2026. We are so excited to kick off this campaign in an effort to raise $5,500 in 30 days!
