Design and Health Students Create Innovative Solutions for Clients with Disabilities Each year since 1999, Philadelphia University students in the occupational therapy and industrial design programs work in teams to create innovative assistive devices for cli- ents with disabilities, making it easier for hundreds of individuals to complete physical activities that would otherwise prove difficult. In what is believed to be the only such collaborative project in the country, this year 27 student teams worked with clients ranging from a two-year old with cystic fibrosis to a 78-year old recovering from a stroke.
