Congratulations to Cohort 15 students who participated in the Ohio Occupational Therapy Association (OOTA) Hill Day at the Ohio Statehouse. Advocacy for our professional is critical and challenging. Under the guidance of the OOTA President, Christie Tuttle, students spoke with legislators regarding the importance of occupational therapy. We are impressed by their leadership and are excited for the future of our profession with them in it. Thank you for representing our program so well!
