The Crumley House utilizes its partnerships with Milligan University and East Tennessee State University Occupational Therapy students to maximize opportunities for members in this area. Occupational training is a treatment that helps people overcome physical, emotional and social challenges. 

The students work directly with patients, helping them master skills for achieving an independent, productive, and satisfying life. Clinicians treat members with a variety of disabilities, with the ultimate goal of helping them return to family, work and community life if possible.
