Occupational Therapy (OT) improves people's engagement in the myriad activities of daily life, despite limitations in physical or mental abilities. The American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) is the national professional association established in 1917 to represent the interests and concerns of occupational therapy practitioners and students of occupational therapy and to improve the quality of occupational therapy services.
Each year in April, occupational therapists, occupational therapy assistants, and students in practice, education, research, and science host a month-long celebration showcasing the importance of OT.
"Occupational therapists are involved in improving
all aspects of their clients'everyday lives.”
