L&C Occupational Therapy Assistant

Good luck to 1st year OTA students as they head into final exams!
These students have worked hard all semester learning the foundations of occupational therapy while supporting and encouraging one another along the way.
We are proud of all they have accomplished and can’t wait to see what’s ahead for them in the OTA Program at Lewis and Clark Community College.

We are so proud to celebrate one of our outstanding OTA students, Lexi H, who has truly made her mark at Lewis and Clark Community College! 🎉

She was nominated by OTA faculty for three prestigious honors as part of LC’s Honors Banquet.
✨ OTA Leadership Award – serving as OTA club president and a true role model for her peers
✨ Academic Excellence Award – maintaining an incredible 4.0 GPA as a full-time college student
✨ Clinical Practice Award – because Lexi just gets OT and consistently shines in hands-on learning

Lexi will be finishing the OTA program this fall, and we have no doubt she will continue to do amazing things wherever her journey takes her. 💙

Second year OTA students had a great day exploring the many ways Occupational Therapy impacts lives in our community! 💙

Today, students visited United Access and Mobility to learn about accessible vehicles and mobility solutions, then they toured Ranken Jordan Pediatric Bridge Hospital and learned more about the amazing OT services (and more) they provide for children and families.

Unfortunately, the weather cut the trip short, so they missed visits to Independence Center (community clubhouse for persons with mental illness) and Memory Care Home Solutions (resources and supports for persons with dementia and their caregivers).

So thankful for the many organizations in our community making a difference every day!

Two of our amazing OTA students are in Anaheim, California for the 2026 AOTA Conference! 🎉 They’ll be joining thousands of OTA/OT students and practitioners from across the country to learn, network, and grow.

A huge thank you to the ECHO Academy, part of the Lewis and Clark Community College Foundation, for the financial support that made this opportunity possible! 💙
