The Center for Occupation and Lifestyle Redesign

2653 Hoover Blvd, Los Angeles, California 90007

The Center for Occupation and Lifestyle Redesign is the world's first center dedicated to the study of how everyday activities or "occupations" shape human health and wellbeing in our society. Here, faculty and students:

  • Analyze occupation from the age of craft to the computer era
  • Examine how occupational changes affect individuals physically, psychologically and spiritually
  • Synthesize research, education and clinical practice to discover what constitutes an optimal balance of work, rest and leisure
  • Customize a program of lifestyle redesign to help individuals achieve that optimum
