It’s #OccupationalTherapyMonth, and this is our story in action: Rancho began in 1888 as a Los Angeles County Poor Farm, where people of different abilities were given a chance to live and work as contributing members of their community. The story continues through the Rancho Works Program. The program, under Occupational Therapy Work Rehabilitation, builds on that legacy of inclusivity and productivity. The program enables participants (patients) of all diagnoses, abilities and backgrounds to regain a sense of self-esteem and well-being through work-related activities. In the Rancho Works Café the participant’s recovery is promoted by engaging both the mind and body in actual job duties in a real work setting.

In this video, you’ll see a success story from our Rancho Works Program, Michelle Diaz, engaging both mind and body in real job duties at the Rancho Works Café. This is more than just work, this is recovery.

In honor of OT Month, we’re highlighting success stories from the Rancho Works Café Program. Today, we're spotlighting Jose (and this awesome smiley face :) latte!)

Jose is known for the radiant energy and enthusiasm he brings to every shift! Though fast food wasn't his first choice, he embraced the opportunity as a step toward his long-term goals. He’s learned how to manage customer service, cleaning, and cashiering, and now helps train new team members with confidence.

Jose’s story shows how work habits, skill-building, and community support can open doors.

✨ In honor of Occupational Therapy Month - We’re sharing success stories from the Rancho Works Café Program all month long, starting with Lorena.

After her stroke, Lorena joined our Work Rehabilitation program to explore her readiness to return to work. She relearned how to use her left hand, transitioned from a wheelchair to a cane, and built back her communication and confidence through supported employment.

She went from volunteer, to paid café team member, to a new job with Sodexo in Rancho’s main cafeteria. Her journey shows what’s possible with determination and the right support.

Help us create more stories like Lorena’s. Donate to the Rancho Works Program:

Hard to believe it’s already been almost two weeks since the 3rd Annual Sara Mulroy SCI Symposium, and the conversations are still resonating. 💭✨

We kicked off the day with a warm and heartfelt introduction from our CEO, Dr. Philip Requejo, as he welcomed our keynote speaker. The morning session featured a powerful lineup of thought-provoking presentations on aging with SCI that sparked meaningful dialogue and set the tone for a truly memorable day.

Here’s a look back at a few moments we’re still thinking about. 📸 We hope to see you at next year’s event!

✨💙 Rancho Patient Spotlight - Reggie’s Story:

“I started here just being a part of the Pathokinesiology Lab, and then I landed a job at Rancho Works Café. Now I’m headed toward further employment in the gym, which feels like a promotion.”

“I’ve always known that Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center was a special place because I saw others with disabilities, and they seemed to be living happy, joyous lives. I wanted to be a part of it.”

“I thought after my injury that there was no chance for me in happiness and joy anymore, but coming right here at Rancho and seeing other people in the same shape and sometimes worse than me, still trying... I never gave up.”

“People come here with devastating injuries and losses of independence. When they see technologies that feel like miracles, they find hope again.” ✨

This throwback video highlights a patient story from a past clinical trial collaboration with @keckmedicineusc , taking us back to the early days of brain-machine interface research at Rancho. This pivotal moment in Neuroprosthetics innovation showcased groundbreaking technology that decodes neural activity to control robotic limbs with thought—decades ahead of its time.

It’s incredible to think how these early advancements paved the way for modern innovations like Neuralink, setting the stage for a new era of neuroscience and rehabilitation. At Rancho, this spirit of innovation—aimed at improving quality of life—is something we continue to celebrate and carry forward. 🧠 💡

From stroke to ALS, these technologies are still redefining independence and showing what’s possible when science and hope come together.
