024 OTAC Annual Conference & Innovation Expo Registration Is Open! The Conference Committee invites you back to Pasadena, CA, November 7-10, 2024, to Amplifying Occupational Therapy's WHY!

🔊 KEYNOTE: Purpose and the Power of WHY (.5 PDUs) presented by Ada Boone Hoerl, MA, COTA/L
Friday, November 8th, immediately following the Awards Ceremony.

Amidst the sameness of repetition and the constant flux of change, the expected and unexpected, we must sometimes pause and reflect on our current position. Even when we think we know our path forward, a moment of reflection can make us question how we arrived here. Given the profound experiences of recent years, this is a crucial time for us to come together with friends and colleagues, focusing inward rather than on external demands. This pause will allow us to reconnect with our passion and ownership for the profession we love, reignite our drive, and revisit, rewrite, or share our personal narratives and why. Armed with renewed clarity and intention, we can then return to our roles and routines with a brighter outlook on the journey ahead.
