Texas AgrAbility staff is working with occupational doctoral student and intern Meghan Skidmore to deliver educational modules for rural practitioners. Topics include farm & ranch culture, assistive technology, farm & ranch assessments, ergonomics, and more. The modules will be available in an online course and will be submitted for CEU accreditation.
A referral form was developed for centers for independent living and the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) migrant and Hispanic farmworker program. The referral forms will be utilized to refer clients to and from AgrAbility for services. The forms were developed in collaboration with non-profit disability services partner BVCIL (Brazos Valley Center for Independent Living) and the TWC Migrant & Hispanic Farmworker State Monitor Advocate.
