"I believe it is vital to become a member of POTA, but even more importantly to actively show engagement and participation within the networking and educational opportunities that are provided on a daily, weekly, monthly, and annual basis. This organization offers a wealth of support for our profession and enhances career development through social encounters, leadership, and continued advocacy efforts that support our distinct value as occupational therapy practitioners. Strength is supported through numbers, making it increasingly important for students and practitioners to support this organization so that we may expand our services and emphasize our distinct value as a team."

-Elizabeth Weekley, POTA Representative 2020
