Residency and Fellowship Program Information
LEND Fellowship
The Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities program, or the LEND program at the Institute for Community Inclusion at Children's Hospital Boston is looking to recruit physical therapists and/or advanced physical therapy students to join the program this year. This is a nine-month fellowship program that requires a full day of activities each Friday from Labor Day through mid-May, plus an additional ½ day each week. This is wonderful opportunity for a physical therapist who is looking to develop their leadership potential and improve their knowledge through advanced interdisciplinary training.

Interested applicants should send a letter of interest and resume to:
Priscilla S. Osborne, PT, MS, PCS
Institute for Community Inclusion
