SHRS stands on its solid reputation as an international leader in rehabilitation and disabilities education, research, and community services, improving the lives and independence of all people with a focus on people at risk for our having chronic conditions or disabilities and those who have traditionally been underserved and underrepresented. The vision of the school is to be a catalyst for a world free of barriers and disparities that allows all people, regardless of health, to have opportunities to participate in life to the fullest; to be accomplished through education, research, and service. SHRS is a nationally renowned leader in the field of health care education, research, and clinical practice preparation. With 14 different disciplines related to health and rehabilitative care, SHRS shapes future generations of health care professionals, therapists, counselors, advocates, scientists, providers, and practitioners, trained to serve the needs of all people, regardless of background, levels of health, or mobility.%3C/span%3E%3C/p%3E%3Cp class=%22MsoNormal%22%3E%3Cspan style=%22font-family:%26quot;Aptos%26quot;,sans-serif;font-size:11.0pt;%22%3EPitt SHRS has grown to over 20-degree programs, forged beneficial linkages across the Health Sciences and University, and has found its graduate programs holding top spots in annual graduate school rankings.
