This weekend I attended the 36th annual conference of the Occupational Therapy Association of California in Pasadena, CA. The theme of the conference was “In Pursuit of the Vision: Evidence and Action,” referring to issues that will affect the profession in light of health care reform, budget reductions, and other legislative issues. I attended the conference sessions and also had the opportunity to work at the USC Division of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy booth. The USC booth was buzzing all weekend with alumni and prospective students. It was wonderful to see people reuniting and catching up on each other’s lives. The conference sessions I attended were part of the “student track,” which focused on topics relevant to students such as NBCOT certification. After hours, there were plenty of opportunities for networking and having fun with fellow students and future colleagues. I can’t wait for next year’s conference!
