Actual conversation I had this weekend: Person: So the 202 number, you live in DC? Me: No, I just work on the Hill, so I've had that # forever Other person: You a lobbyist or something? Me: Yeah, for the OTs OP: Oh...I'm an Army doc. OT has saved more lives than me. Me:


Excited to be up and talking OT's role in school mental health at the @MDOTAssociation this morning!


Don't let anyone tell you differently, school-based OTs and OTAs support student mental health as much as anyone. Don't take my word for it, take all 51 state practice acts and this Dept of Ed FAQ: ed.gov/sites/ed/files… Thanks for all you do!

It takes a team to support students' mental health. To the counselors, psychologists, social workers, and so many others in our schools advocating for students and their mental well-being - thank you for all you do! #ThankYouThursday #WorldMentalHealthDay #WMHD2024

I should offer some live streaming of me finding out very basic results, and then freaking out over them. I'd make millions

I just took a first and VERY brief look at the data from the @AOTAInc school-based survey results, and holy moly. I'm flipping out. If you took the survey, helped spread the word, or did ANYTHING, this is going to have a massive policy impact. THANK YOU ALL!

AOTA Senior Legislative Representative Abe Saffer recently joined OT Schoolhouse Podcast as a guest host to discuss the power of advocacy in the OT profession with Jayson Davies, the founder of OT Schoolhouse. Check it out: bit.ly/3TwkMJe


The old saying is "put your money where your mouth is." Well, @usedgov did just that by awarding the MAJORITY of a grant's awards to OT programs. Check out @AOTAInc's latest article! aota.org/advocacy/advoc…


This was such a great conversation! Thanks to @JaysonDaviesOT for letting me guest host!

When I started at @AOTAInc 8 years and one week ago, I never doubted that, one day, I would be a coauthor with 2 brilliant people (@nicolepfirman & @breannaplynch1) of an article following up on an AJOT article I also coauthored*. (*this is a lie, how is this my life?)

Seeing this in print makes me so happy! It's been a 20 year journey of advocating, and it's paying off slowly but surely- for the youth!
