Recreational Therapy Research Findings
At the Lift & Shift Foundation, we believe making things is more than just a hobby. Tools like 3D printing, Tinkercad, and Arduino can also be a powerful tool to relax, play, learn, and bring people together.

Our research team is currently reviewing the scienfitic literature to determine the effectiveness of recreational therapy. We are also exploring the impact of recreational therapy on mental health and well-being. Our research team is made up of professionals and students. We are excited to share our findings with you soon!
Our high school internships are a great way to get hands-on experience with the latest technology. Intern roles are divided into two categories: science and tech.
Our featured science internship role is a Research Assistant intern. This role is perfect for students who are interested in learning how to understand research and its real world implications. Find the application for our Research Assistant internship hosted by our partner HighschoolHires.
As of the summer '24 conclusion, our Research Assistant interns have developed a collection of infographics and content to help people understand basic scientific concepts related to fields of medicine, biology, neurology, to name a few.
Science Ambassadors is another intern role for students. These interns are the public face of our nonprofit. Basically they're our content creators. They work to share information about our work through social media, our website, op-eds, and other media engagements. Apply to be a Science Ambassador at HighschoolHires.
Our mission is to support more inclusive STEM fields, by providing programs for veterans and hands on access to high school students.
