Thanks to Everyone For A Terrific First Meeting!

Thanks to everyone for a very productive meeting! We at AOTF are very excited about the prospect of beginning an honor society for OTA and it would not be possible without the creativity and commitment of leaders like you!

I am grateful to Jessica Halterman and Melissa Oliver for sharing their wisdom and experience with Pi Theta Epsilon. This gives us a giant head start!

If you have not done so, please be sure to send an email to Jessica at jhalterm@aol.com with your name, affiliation, committee preferences and further ideas about names, structure standards and other matters that may be germane to the discussion.

We pledge to work with you to create a sustainable society that recognizes leading students, and serves as a means for promoting excellence, service and pride among occupational therapy assistant students, educators and practitioners! Check our website at www.aotf.org for a press release on this initiative next week.

If I can be of assistance in any way, please do not hesitate to call me at 301-652-6611 ext 2551.

Thanks again!
