Volunteer opportunity with NOJ Foundation in Vietnam

I am a retired OT and worked in Alberta for Renfrew and ACH.  I am currently volunteering with a small NGO called No Ordinary Journey. We have been working with children with Cerebral Palsy and their families, teaching physiotherapists in Vietnam to treat these children. To date there have not been any OT’s in Vietnam, so I have been training the physios to provide basic fine motor, cognitive and ADL programs. We are currently looking at providing a training program in Thailand in February 2018. As our programs increase, we are finding that we will require more OT’s in the future. If you are interested, please email Laurie to from more information and to receive an Expression of Interest for Volunteering with NOJF as well as an application form.
