AOTPAC Chair Blog - Emerging Leaders Hill Visits 2012

There is a great group of Emerging Leaders ready to take on Capitol Hill this Wednesday, January 11th!  We have 25 offices that will be visited by some of our 2012 Emerging Leaders cohort, sharing the message about occupational therapy.  What a great time to hit the Hill and develop the relationships necessary to develop policies that support and advance occupational therapy.  On a briefing call, with this group this evening I was excited by their energy, impressed by their interest in knowing the issues and proud of this next generation of leaders in occupational therapy!

Great to hear!!! We are doing something very similar  in the state of Minnesota on Febuary 29th at the capital in St. Paul, MN. I am hoping we get a crowd and we too will be sharing the message about OT. I did a Skype session with the committee before the new year and they also seemed excited and eager about this opportunity. Can't wait for this great opportunity!!

Sounds exciting.  Hopefully I will get accepted into the program during my "years of eligibility" so that I can have the experience myself.
